We were invited to hang out with the Kaos one Saturday.  It was nice to be together and chat again.  It was interesting that we seemed to pair up, Michelle and I, Stuart and Ted, Logan and Mckayla, and Connor and Marcus, spending time together.  Tennis, basketball and video game were involved that afternoon.  Buddy was definitely the lucky one ; he enjoyed running freely in their huge backyard and exploring every corner of the yard.  Logan and Mckayla were the responsible ones, walking after Buddy to watch over him.  We also had a wonderful meal to make us fully satisfied.

    Right after the trip, I took Logan in for the 2nd vaccine.  He did well tolerating it without too much complaints.  It was awesome that we are one more down, and hope Connor can get his one day soon.

    Right after school was out, we made our way down south to visit the grandparents.  It had been over one year since we last saw the grandparents, thus it was wonderful to see them again and spend time together.  We are happy that the boys enjoyed chatting with the grandparents and Buddy was well behaved with them too.  It was also wonderful watching Grandpa show us his different instruments and taking a small trip to Hermosa with Grandma.

    On Monday, we took off to Pismo beach.  We have been wanting to go to Pismo for a long time, it was awesome to finally seeing how beautiful it is.  Our hotel was right on the cliff and we had a nice view of the ocean from our room too.  We loved that we could make our way down the cliff to the beach.  The boys and I had fun playing with water and building sand buildings both days.  Logan found these little creatures in the sand which freaked us out.  Buddy had a blast as well; he had fun running in the water with Stuart and he liked hanging out watching all the commotion too.  We also liked the pier; we walked around and picked up foods for meal too.  We made the most out of our time at Pismo and planned to leave Tuesday late afternoon.  We picked up food at the restaurant next to the hotel and enjoyed dinner in our room before we made our drive home.  These are the photos from this wonderful trip.

    Our Connor is now an incoming 6th grader.  He stayed with distance learning the entire 5th grade year, thus he did not really have a chance to spend final time at our dear elementary school.  Connor is already missing the school; he mentioned that he would miss the playgrounds and having recesses to play with his friends.  We had a chance to say goodbye to his last elementary teacher while we went to pick up the 5th grade memory book.  Now Connor is preparing himself to join Logan at middle school.
