 childhood is great.

 i creeped in on this picture someone else was taking.

 drew's brother who use to live five houses down just moved.

i feel like we have seen them more this last month then before.

maybe because there have been one million vacations.

it's been pretty great.

camp fire.

 camp F.I.R.E

 so every year drew's mom side gets together in california.

it was fun because it was drew's immediate cousins.

 the water was absolutely freezing.

 but clearly the mud was very fun.

 the little girls danced around drew as he sang.
