we've been back from camping a couple of weeks now, so it's time i shared some pics with y'all!
i took this one using my new fixed 50 lens and there are only TWO words one can use to describe this pic...
CAMPING FEET!!!
camping is a relaxing time for us, and with a couple of musos in the fam, it's nice to sit back and listen to them strum
an arty shot from miss 18
and some cool boogey boarding moves too
exam results became available online while we were camping, and someone didn't want me to photograph her in case it was bad news. yeah right!
some nights we got the most amazing sunsets
and during the day we soaked up the sun and surf
i just love this pic. don't ask me why...
2 of our number have birthdays in january
someone turned 12, and someone else turned 51
this is my favourite shot of the holiday
we visited a local berry farm and they make fresh fruit icecreams
this pic mimics a huge photo they have on the wall
i tried several times to get this shot and when all 6 of us ordered icecreams, i would yell "DON'T LICK THEM YET!!!!" so i could take the pic, which was really difficult, as it was so hot they were melting right before our eyes!
we also played relaxing board games
another gorgeous sunset
(maybe i should devote an entire post them - i have enough pics!)
we went for after dinner walked and played wave chasing
fresh strawberries picked by our very own hands!
and there's the jumping pillow
fun for young AND old!
we flew miss 18's bestie up for the last 6 days
here she's balancing turtle island in her palm
do you feel like you came camping with us too?

haha i think that jumping shot is the teenager (between you and I) coming out.... as for glamping... maybe a scrap glamping getaway??
I do feel like camping with you! Can you send over airline tickets??? :D
Oh yes I do! This post single-handedly inspired me to start working on my health so I can get out into the world and experience those things!
The pictures were STUNNING as well! You captured the fun of the whole event :)
Please extend birthday wishes to the two lucky people who celebrated last month! Hopefully this year will be the best yet for them!
I love camping, and that looks like a great holiday. I could just eat one of those ice creams!
Late stopping by from SITs. Happy belated SITs day! Beautiful trip and beautiful family!
Ahhhh...those feet!!!! I love the photo of you on the tramp!
Oh yes, that was a great camping holiday. We ad to teach the two year olds in December to take their crocs off as the come into the tent and put one when they go out. Not an easy task. (My answer to camping feet)
I'm there! Count me in.
And that ice cream looks incredible.
Camping feet... totally sums up the camping experience! Love it! Stopping by from SITS and I love the shots!
I found you through SITS and the camping trip looks like a lot of fun.
Your photos are great; your girls are beautiful; Hubby's a hunk and the ice cream looks delicious! Lucky you!
I just received your card! Thanks so much. Hope you find a new job you love!
You have been taking the best pictures lately, and I'm JEALOUS of all of your fun times camping at the beach!
Great phots! Makes me want to visit! Want a house guest?LOL!
ICE CREAM LOOKED GOOD!
Just loved this post... coming from SITS. Random, but are you going to Bloggy Boot Camp in Baltimore?
I Love you pictures! All those girls - an whole new world. And girls are so much more "let's make each moment a celebration" than boys. I bet your vacation is much more fun with teenage girls:)
I personally cannot stand dirt on the bottom of my feet. I'm just getting the shakes here just thinking about it!
I'm glad they got such a great picture of you, though:)
You got some great shots. Had to laugh that you had your computer while "camping."
How do you like your new lens??
I've always wanted to come to New Zealand!! Your camp trip looks beautiful!!
You are totally rockin' the 50mm! Love your shots. And the beach pix are a welcome sight on this below freezing day in the ATL.
Yay for camping! We have a trip coming up in April and we can't WAIT for it!
Visiting from SITS!
Hi! I just discovered you via SITS. New Zealand looks beautiful. Your photos are very nice. I popped across to the South Island once but would love to return! Not sure about camping though :)

Wow, that looks like a lot of fun! Beautiful photos!
Oh my, them some dirty feet. Exactly why I don't like to camp. :)
I like that photo too (The backs of the girls walking).
Great fun! And what's even better is that my new laptop shows ALL your photos (I only used to get half of them on my old machine, v frustrating). I loved the one you did of the girls walking along the beach - I'd have that on my kitchen wall if I were you.
Waiving hi from Connecticut! Visit from SITS on a little late for your SITS day! Wow, I don't know where you went on vacation, but I so want to be there! The water looks gorgeous, and those mountains! We camp too and luv the beach!

Now that looks like a lot of fun! Wish I was along with you. Beautiful sunsets although ours yesterday wasn't too shabby either. I loved you pics, capturing all the fun you had!
coming through from sits! love your pictures, I miss camping:) lol @ camping feet..
Looks like so much fun! I want to come and go camping there. We have fun camping here too, but I like the looks of yours better :)
