Camping at Morro Bay

Last week Micah & I decided to join the church youth group on their annual campout at Morro Bay (central California Coast). Ryan was very disappointed that he couldn't join us but his bridge was in full swing (and I don't even think he missed us too much ;-). I was a little nervous about camping with Micah & 35 teenagers by myself. But it went well. Many of the girls were anxious to push Micah around & take him off my hands. Additionally a friend's two daughters (ages 7 & 11) were perfect to watch Micah while I ran to the bathroom.

The weather was a wonderful relief from the crazy temps in Oakhurst. I think the daily highs didn't get above 75 & the nighttime lows were in the low 60's. It was actually harder to adjust when we returned home.

I had to special order fuzzy pajamas that would fit Micah for this trip (apparently, short sleeve cotton pj's didn't quite cut it at the beach). Micah spent a majority of his time in "the cage." Which was nice because he kept wanting to run into the street.

Micah & Justus (the youth pastor's daughter) hang out in 'the cage.'

Micah still does not like the ocean wather (which was nice since I was doing this by myself) but he did like playing in the sand.

I don't know if you can see it...but this is my sandy faced boy. Apparently sunscreen & sand mix a little too well. The sand seemed attracted to Micah's face & was virtually impossible to get off.

Isabella was one of the girls who helped watch Micah a lot. The girls were always trying to put this stocking cap on him that he hated (it probably had to do with the fact that it was last year's & was a little small)
