Camping at Big Basin

This weekend Derek and Gavin went camping at Big Basin! They went with a big group from the Mountain School, and had so much fun. They went from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning...baby Austin and I went up and spent the day there on Saturday.

Gavin had so much fun! He helped pitch the tent, start the fire, and cook all the food all weekend. We went on some pretty neat hikes to see a waterfall and "slippery rock." Baby A even crawled all the way up this ginormous rock! Big Basin is so beautiful, and hiking underneath the big tall redwood trees feels so good. Gavin was our "Hike Leader" and he made sure we knew where were going and "stayed safe." So much to do and see, and of course so much fun because all of Gavin's friends were there. G did lots of playing in the dirt, mud, sand, water, and tree moss...all of his favorite toys.

This was G's first time camping, and it was like he has done it how whole life. (Of course, we expected our nature boy to fit right in) I only got a few pics while baby and I were there...

**Derek and I had not been to Big Basin in over 7 years!!! Last time we were there was when we were dating:) We agree that we will be going there quite a bit more now that we have a serious camper.
