memorial day weekend of 2008

this past memorial day we headed out to livermore to camp at lake del valle with other families from san jose crc. we tried out our tent that we got as a wedding gift and it worked very nicely. it includes a pet den off of one of the sides, something we don't plan on using for a pet, but it works nicely as a place to store shoes.
the ground was too hard to put stakes in...jeremy hauled the rock over from the river.

we shared a site with brad, karen and hayden and we had a great time. we even enjoyed a huge breakfast with brad, karen, jacob, and suzie on sunday which was so good.

it was a bit rainy and cold over the weekend, so on sunday after pastor al's sermon we went with jacob and suzie to check out some of the local wineries. we had a good time and picked up a few bottles to add to our collection.



i loved the inside of this place...so classy
we look forward to heading back again next year!

A+ for ingenuity (with the rock)

Great pics of memorial camping. I think last summer we went to a friends wedding in that winery in Livermore. The ceremony was in the room filled with wine barrels. It was beautiful!
