California trip: cousin time

Gabriel's parents moved up the coast to Santa Maria last summer. This was our first trip out to visit since their move, and let's just say that the San Luis Obispo area they now call home is AMAZING. It's the perfect combo of California beaches, farmland, mountains, and funky college town. We're tempted to move that direction now, too, but the cost of living is a little more than outrageous. And our house doesn't seem to be switching hands any time soon. But one can always dream, right?

As for Liam, the real draw is a certain little someone named Hannah. They made the most of cousin time and played, and screamed, and chased, and climbed, and colored, and played some more.


Not only did he have Hannah to play with, but he also got to spend lots of special time with Grandma (and a cute little kitten, too).

And with all of the excitement that two cousins can create, some relaxed time reading with Grandma was a treat for all of us.


A treat that Grandma was happy to indulge lots and lots of time.


But it wasn't long before these two were back to the wild and crazy cousin celebration.
