Camping at Pismo Beach

For spring break this year we went camping at Pismo Beach. We went with our friends the Fords who have three boys the exact same age as our kids. So that's six kids ages five and under! They all did great! We started off our trip by going to a restaurant of all places. Everyone was well behaved and ate a very good lunch. It was a fun start to the trip. The next three days consisted of playing in the dirt and more playing in the dirt! Allison made 24 mud pies to be exact. The kids literally played in the dirt for twelve hours strait! We did walk to the beach but it was too windy to stay very long. They didn't mind leaving because they knew the dirt was waiting for them back at camp! Our campsite was next to a lagoon and there were geese that were very entertaining. One had just laid an egg and was very protective of the area. It was fun to watch the kids being chased away by the family of geese. We did all the typical camping stuff like roasting hot dog, making smores, and just hanging out.
The kids played awesome together and luckily no one got hurt. Josh got a fever the second day and was very mellow and just wanted to sit on our laps. It was kind of nice because I didn't have to worry about him getting into too much stuff. Overall, we had a great time camping at Pismo Beach. We might even try it again this summer when the weather is a little warmer. Enjoy yet another video!
