Cousins at the Beach

Arnie's brother Josh and his family came to visit us last weekend and we had a full house, a full weekend and a blast! The girls woke up at 5:30am on Saturday to find the power was out and watched the sunrise. After a wonderful breakfast of biscuits and gravy provided by Anna, we were off to Carmel beach to play in the sand while Arnie surfed. We also went to the tide pools of Asilomar and got nice and wind blown. Our girls enjoyed introducing their Minnesota cousins to the beaches and educating them about the wildlife that they have come to love. Because of the high wind and waves, we weren't able to see any sea otters, though. Maybe on another trip.

What a fun adventure! It is always exciting to have cousins visit. Love the pic of the sugar cookie.

So glad to get a photo and essay update about the Hammari Little Women. The Auswanderers are looking forward to being with you in a few weeks

Glad you found something fun to do while Arnie surfed. Is he addicted or what! We had some hermit crabs visit our Preschool class for pet week. Different looking creatures, the kids weren't sure what to think about them.
