Beach Day with the Clowers

My brother Tim and his wife brought their three darling kiddos up from Hollister for the day so we could get in some extra visiting. What better way to spend time together than by taking a trip to the beach?  Here are the daddies, out in the water with their girls.

Easton: See, like this!
Wes: Hmm, I'm not so sure you've got it right.

The girls had so much fun chasing each other on the beach

Just look at these cousins having special time together. 

It's moments like these that remind me of exactly why we moved back home. 

Gabriela is going to grow up with so many memories of her cousins. They will be her best friends and well, what more could we ask for?

After beach time, we had the kids all hope into the bathtub.  That's right, 5 kids in the bath.  They had a blast.  Well, I'm not so sure about Weston, but all the other kids had fun.

After bath time, Kristie and I made dinner together while the girlies all played.  Mina played find-and-use-every-accessory-you-can-get-your-hands-on.  And here is the picture to prove it:
