Sunsets

Recently I posted on facebook that I took about 200 pictures of a sunset. It is true. The sunset was beautiful while we were in Key Largo. I am pretty much convinced that every sunset is magnificent though! I tend to take a lot of pictures of sunsets no matter where we are visiting. I like playing with the lighting and settings on the camera in order to find just the right setting and sometimes I find that 200 pictures later, I finally got it right! Rob and the girls and indulge my craziness for awhile, but will soon go off on their own adventures. Today I present a few (maybe more) sunsets from our recent adventures!

Carpinteria 2010

So we camped another year at Carpinteria! As always we had a great time with family at the beach and at the campfire. We visited our usual hangouts as well as doing something new this year. We went on a little boat ride from the pier through the Santa Barbara Harbor. The girls and my nephew got to steer the boat for a short time. It was a good trip and I am glad my sister, her boyfriend, my brother and his girlfriend got to join us.

Getting candy from Robitaille's candy store. They make their own candy..all kinds of good stuff (they make the inaugural mints for the Presidential Inaugurations). The kids prefer to get the other stuff you can get anywhere though!
