New Cousins!

One of the absolute highlights of our California trip involved a completely fortunate timing coincidence.

After we booked our flights, Aaron & Brooke (my brother & his wife), were "given" two fost-to-adopt children whom they hope to officially adopt in 6 months. Keontay is 5 and Dacia is 19 months old. We were so happy to spend time with them during their first days as a new family, and I even got to attend an adoption shower for Brooke. The kids are adorable, and Aaron & Brooke are (of course) fantastic parents.


What better place to bond with new cousins than Chuck E. Cheese? Papa treated us all to a great time...this one might have to be a new family tradition! (I was way too busy playing skee ball to take many pictures!)

That's so awesome! Brooke was really sweet when I met her at your Sip and See. I hope the adoption works out great and they get to be an official family soon!! How fun to have new cousins!
