Pismo Beach day

We went to Pismo Beach and enjoyed our stop to see the Monarch butterfly grove 

Hard to see, but the bunches of stuff in the trees is hundreds of butterflies 

Here is a better picture

Then we drove the truck onto Pismo Beach...so cool to drive on the beach 

Gorgeous sky and ocean views!

...

And of course the dogs loved the beach and sand too! 

Smores at our campground  

Walks by the bay

Kids playing around camp ground at Morro Bay state park, across from the bay and marina 

Great morning walk with the dogs along the Morro Bay Salt Marsh 

Sand dunes

Morro Bay Camping Trip

We drove over to Morro Bay for a camping trip with the dogs during Thanksgiving break 

We thought the dogs would be a good idea, but as you can see the kids took off and Caleb and I dealt with the dogs the entire time 

We tried a new camping spot, Morro Bay State Park and really liked it 

Gorgeous sunsets 

Love this one of the kids! 

Thanksgiving with Friends

Kathleen worked Thanksgiving evening this year, so our dear friends invited us over for an early Thanksgiving dinner 

The Dam family 

We had a yummy Thanksgiving!
