Cousin Fun

We've been having an amazing time with the SoCal B. family. On Tuesday we went through town, had breakfast at the bakery. and played at the park. In the afternoon the kids took naps and played outside in the pool.. We had talked about going up to a lake in the mountains, but by the time we had lunch and naps and all that it had gotten too late, plus the other kids were having tons of fun outside. We watched a movie after dinner and just basically relaxed and hung out. On Wednesday we packed a picnic lunch and after stopped by Ed's work we headed to the beach during low tide. We had our picnic and walked through the tidepools and muck and sea weed and found some cool stuff. We didn't see as many sea creatures as we did the day Bethany & I went on her school field trip, but we had a really good time. We made Italian Sodas when we got home (a first for the SoCal B. family) and the kids played and played and played!
