Lake Cachuma Thanksgiving Adventures

Wednesday of Thanksgiving week we headed up to Lake Cachuma to meet family for a weekend of camping.  We made great time and had almost a full day on Wednesday to play and enjoy. 

And that first night we went ahead and busted out the marshmallows for roasting!!!


Thanksgiving morning we started the day off right with bloody mary's...

...and bike rides.

The boys brought their bikes too and Owen really picked it up this trip.  He's been riding a two wheeler for a while now, but he was still having a hard time starting and stopping.  After this weekend he's definitely an old pro.

We hiked down to the lake bed a couple different times.  So sad to see it so dry.

Auntie and the cousins joined us for Thanksgiving as well.  


Perfect day for some exploring with these 4!

Thanksgiving dinner...



Unfortunately I have no pictures of the whole group.

That night we had all of Owen's favorite foods, including 3 kinds of Owen friendly pie.  He was the happiest I've ever seen!

Friday morning we had breakfast and hot chocolate outside, our RV gets kind of tight with 7 people in it!

Then we explored the nature center


And they even performed their own puppet show!

Then it was time to say goodbye to cousins.  It sure was a treat having them there with us for Thanksgiving!

More hiking and exploring...




And cuddling by the campfire...

We had planned to stay through Saturday night but after a morning of rain Saturday morning we ended up hitting the road around noon that day.  It was a great weekend and the perfect way to kick off the holiday season!
