cousins & cruisin'

cousins J, K & H in town for a day at my humble abode just enjoying being together...H is really funny now that he's 2+ and can do certain things on his own, including taking off his shoes and setting them perfectly aligned against the wall; licking ketchup out of the little paper cup at in-n-out w/ mom and K; counting and re-counting rocks from sedona on the patio and on the floor; getting right up on my bed in order to bounce (shoes? why do they matter on the bed?!); swimming and collecting the floating bouganvillea; up/down/up/down; pb&j with happy feet; two cucumbers and a carrot at the same time; leg hugs; "oh no" muttered BEFORE intentionally dropping something; "where he go?" when the desert cottontails disappear behind the bushes once again. inspiring watching the kids at the track meet and J coaching shotput and discus...loved the quick drive with J on the way home and quiet time with K...love you, cousins

learned how to touch up the vespa with paint and now i can cruise more confidently knowing that no one will see her old dings and scratches...well, that's not necessarily true but she does look brand new now! thank you dad and jd for teaching me the ways ;) and thank you dad for keeping her pristine while she lives at your house...i really appreciate everything
