California in 2010

We took our annual trip to Cali this last week, and drove our little family down to Camino,Ca instead of Santa Rosa this year, as Chris' mom and step dad were there with family on a vacation from Morocco. So we spent a week in Camino. Where, you might ask? Up in the foothills of Tahoe (about 45 min from South Lake Tahoe). It was beautiful, and we had a really great time relaxing in the beauty that this small town had to offer, and catching up with Chris' mom and step dad that we haven't seen in a year! Plus some very needed stress-free time together as a family. Not to mention two very gracious hosts: Glen and Gigi Gentilin who let us overtake their home for a week. Our week of adventure included:

Good down time with Grandma Precious and Papa Tom
Many family meals out on the back deck
