Adventures in California

I've been meaning to write about our California trip but I keep forgetting or I've just been lazy. The drive was long as usual but listening to Scott Westerfeld's Leviathan made it go a lot faster, it was a good book too. Just like last year I stayed at Tim and Jess's house and got to watch cool movies like The A team, Shooter, Live free or die hard, and Battle Las Angelos. It was also good to see little Kingston again, he's a hilarious kid with many expressions. It was his second birthday party. We did lot's of shopping, Mom was nice enough to get me some new shoes which were much needed. Cousin Alexie was nice enough to let me tag along to some of her friends fun activities. We also ate at some good places like Alberto's and squeeze in. I really liked that super burrito. It was sad to leave. On the way back we listened to the second Leviathan book called Behemoth. Here are a few pictures of the event.

We swam in Aunt Maureen's pool a lot.

Kingston liked getting really close to the camera.
