Cousins

The best part of our trip to Southern California was seeing the cousins spending time together, reestablishing their friendships. They live thousands of miles away from each other but that doesn't stop them from feeling connected.

Laughing over french toast (the syrup is definitely in her hair by this point)
















Lysie and Addie sharing Addie's bed as they get ready for bed -- drink milk, read book, sing songs.. the entire bedtime ritual takes no less than 30 minutes. What have we done!

Elyse must get to Covelo!

She loves to climb everything. We caught her the other day climbing out of the top floor of a playscape in order to dangle from the top of the swingset.

Sorry for the blur - still practicing with the camera.

Oh, and that's chocolate custard giving her the clown smile.

Checking the news of the day.

Addie is explaining to me what goes into spaghetti surprise, made of grass, weeds, mulch and sticks.

She too has a big of chocolate and the remnance of a flower painted on her face. She and Lysie are invited to all the best parties, you know!

Uh oh - another Diet Coke fiend. She chugs while Daddy puts together the 3rd pink stool for the house.
 

Lysie is serious about her fashion - off the shoulders and sporting the eyewear.
 

More shots from the community playground. You can see that Addie likes to get pretty high herself on the swings.










Funny shot.











Addie always seems to know when the camera is on her.











 

Elyse (aka Lysie, pronounced lee-sie), like most kids, loves to swing but she loves to swing fast and high. Here are some great shots using our new camera.
