Visit with Cousins

So my cousins had never been to Fresno before. Laurie came to California with us last year and we took her to San Francisco for a couple of days. This year we had both Laurie and Garrett visiting so we brought them back home to our house. Wednesday the 8th of July we spent the day driving back from Shasta. Great drive for Garrett to see the terrain of northern California. Thursday we slept in a bit, went out to see Children's Hospital for Laurie (we'd LOVE her to get a job there) and then we out to the base for a tour with Papa. I think the kids enjoyed it most of all, especially since Papa hooked us up with a great tour of the fire station!


The kids loved getting to climb into the fire truck!




They even got goody bags!


We even enjoyed a nice "cooler" evening hanging out with the neighbors and ice cream.


Friday I left the plans up to Garrett. Since we only had the one last day for sightseeing they had the choice of going to the beach or to Yosemite. Tough choice for someone who had never been to the west coast. After much deliberating, Garrett choose to go to Yosemite. I think it helped that it meant a little less time in the car!




















Overall a wonderful visit! Garrett was happy with his choice. We figure this just means that he has to come back another time so we can take him to the beach! Hopefully we didn't scare him off!
