Ending the summer with a blow out!!

Well this past weekend we decided to load the kids up(minus Ty, he's still in Utah) and head up north to Kam's family for one last getaway before school starts. We got there about 9pm Friday night and had a movie night, then on Saturday morning we got up about 4am to do a session at the Oakland temple with kam's mom and sister it was a truly wonderful experience. Then we all got ready to go to Stinson Beach I had never been there before and was just expecting this average everyday beach. WOW was I wrong.... after we drive for about a half and hour we get on this curvy road that curve's up the mountain and then back down the view was phenomenal and the kids were screaming the whole time.. they were a little scared..... so we finally get down the mountain to this absolutely beautiful beach that is breath taking.... we had such a good time with the family. Josiah and I played in the sand, while kam,the kids and his sisters swam in the ocean, at one point we were shocked because Josiah was crawling normally in the sand.. he normally does the army crawl.. then after a long day on the sand we had a bbq it was such a fun time... On Sunday we went to Kam's moms ward, its a Tongan ward and is always a bit challenging for me ..lol, but it was nice... then we got ready to leave about 7ish and not even an hour on the road we hit something in the road and got a BLOW-OUT.... so were sitting on the side of the road waiting for our tire to get fixed with car full of kids.... we made it home around 1am....... just another day in the life of the Manu family..... here are some pics of our weekend

I'm glad you had one last horrah before school starts. I'm sorry about the tire problem though. Such is life.
