Our Santa Cruz Tradition
Here are a few pictures from our Memorial Day weekend at New Brighton Beach. We had a great time as usual and Maya enjoyed a lot of firsts....her first camping trip, her first smore, and her first time playing on the beach. She loved it all, especially the smores!
We always enjoy our trip to Santa Cruz, we camp with our good friends, relax (although not as much relaxing was going on for me with Maya running around this year), eat way more than we should and play on the beach. It was funny though to see that the times are a changing as our campsite was usually filled with teenagers and my two oldest were always off hanging with friends, and going down to the beach after dark with a big group of kids, GIRLS included! Not sure I am ready for the whole boy/girl thing, but its here! Do you know how funny the conversation between teenage boys and girls can be?
We enjoyed a day at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and Jake was thrilled because he was finally tall enough to ride most of the big rides. He is a little thrill seeker, not like his mom AT ALL when it comes to riding rides at an amusement park. My stomach ends up in my throat just watching!! Here he is on the ride that shoots you up really high and drops you straight down over and over.

Jake, Maya and Blake--Don't you love how Jake is getting Maya to look at me?

That looks like so much fun and Maya is getting so big. She looks taller in the pictures and not a whole lot of baby fat going on there anymore. She looks so grown up already, like a little girl verses a baby now.
Love the Santa Cruz pics - good times! I think our daughter Alexis was one of those "teenage girls" who enjoyed frequenting your campsite! You are so good about taking pictures. I'm a slacker most of the time. We have a family blog too. I added your blog link to our site. Check it out.
Janalee!!!! I can't believe how grown up Miss Maya looks in these pictures! She is so cute and so pretty in her pink!!! I love reading that she and Laney share some similar habits! It is so fun to know that they will always share something so intimate as their time together at Chung Yi.
I am glad that your family had such a fun time together!!!
Loveyou
