last Tuesday through Friday was the 20th annual (i think) Testa family camping trip. we went to El Capitan this year. Tim, Ryan and i got to stay with my parents in their trailer. thank goodness! we had great weather, so we spent our days down at the beach. the hot weather (ok, it was probably in the 70s) made me feel extra pregnant and tired and sweaty, but it was worth it to watch how much fun Ryan was having. Tim and my dad came up in the evenings after work for dinner and s’mores and sitting around the fire. we had a very fun trip!
going for a walk
playing in his “cage” with Matteo (he likes it. really.)
Ryan and his bff for the week, Brianna. he had so much fun playing with her, and she was tons of help, always chasing him around.

Brianna dug a hole on the beach, and Ryan used it as his private pool. he loved it!

crazy Uncle Tony kayaking with the dolphins. they were so close!
Ryan and Brianna checking out the gross jelly fish blob. i think that’s two of them ?
i got to sit in the shade...

Ryan’s favorite new word — Debi! he still talks about DebiDebiDebi (almost always says it 3 times), Martin, and their dog, Duke (pronounced Kook).
