Every year, our friends Anton and Sabrina and their little boys join us to camp somewhere; this year we picked Lake Almanor in Plumas County, CA.
From setting up camp, to hiking to enjoying each other’s company; it’s all about family and friends for us!
The boys enjoyed each others company as they bonded and played around the lake and camp. Sibling rivalries were settled and competitive tendencies calmed; ultimately it’s all about the friendships they are building!
Their smiles tell it all!
Enzo had a great time enjoying the lake, the rocky beach, and the hammock! as he snuck in some playtime in between!
Diego loves nature as much as his brother, but he prefers to build stuff so he made himself at home at the lake building all kinds of rock structures!
Anton and I wanted to take some starry photos so we hiked down to the lake in the middle of the night to take some of these!
