Girl Scout Santa Cruz Overnight

 
This last weekend, I took Elsa and her Girl Scout Troop to Santa Cruz to camp on the boardwalk and enjoy some fun in the sun.  We met up at her school, and then caravanned down to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk.  After checking in, along with 2000 other girls scouts and parents, we found a place on the Boardwalk to set up our tent.  The girls were setting up a big tent that would fit all 9 of them!
  
 
 
Then we headed out on to a dinner on the sand and then a movie under the stars!  We saw Zootopia, and soon after the movie ended, the girls were all nestled in their sleeping bags. 
By 6AM they were up making noise, and soon after that, they packed up all the gear.
 
Then we headed back to the beach for breakfast and then a sand castle making content, which mostly involved playing in the ocean.
 
 
 
 
The MOMS!
After the contest it was time to change into dry clothes and go on the rides.  The girls had a lot of fun on the rides, and so did I!
 
 
Some of the rides were too spiny for Elsa, so she played a ping pong ball toss game and won a large turtle!
 
By early afternoon we were all very tired, so we headed home, stopping by to see Auntie Amanda and get some ice cream!
