Cousin Mike and Grayson came over, then we went to Camarillo

Cousin Mike and Grayson came over for a swim.  Grayson's quite the swimmer!

I had not intended to swim in my clothes, but ended up going in.  Boys sure do play differently than girls!!

Ella was bummed she missed Grayson.  But he promised to come back soon.

Last weekend Ella, Karina and I went to Camarillo . . . also known as "paradise".  Nana had her awesome chili verde waiting.  It was foggy both mornings, which I LOVE.

We went to Neptunes Net for lunch.  The picture was before all the bikers pulled up.

 We made some new friends :)

 Then we ran across the street and went to the beach.  It was pretty windy . . . but perfect.

 The girls tried to play frisbee, but they weren't very good.  OK - maybe it was a little too windy.

Then back to Nana and Papa's for dinner, and we also went to Ventura pier Saturday night.

Yep . . . love going to Camarillo.  It really is paradise.  :)

Thank you Nana and Papa . . . we had a wonderful time.  It was a little rough coming back to the Valley of Death.

Yvonne taught us the "Karina song"

Karina, Karina

Girl, where you been so long?

Karina, Karina

Where you been so long

I've been worried about you baby

Why won't you please come home

I got a bird that whistles

Then I got a bird that sings

I got a bird that whistles

Got a bird that sings

But I ain't got Karina

And life don't mean a thing

Karina, Karina

Girl, you're on my mind

Karina, Karina

Girl, you're on my mind

Everytime I think of you

I, I just can't keep from crying
