We are packing our bags and getting ready for a trip to San Diego to help cousin Sammy celebrate his 2nd birthday. Yes, we are taking both girls on our first ever family vacation.

So last night, after a truely gruelling day, Kevin and I looked at eachother and wondered if Auntie Suzy and Uncle Dan know what they are in for. It’s been two years since they had an infant in the house and I’m thinking baby amnesia may have set in. I hope they are ready for Kulia and all the chaos she brings with her. But hey, ready or not, here we come!

Of course, no matter what, it’s going to be crazy. We are going to overflow their poor little house. Sammy and Leina are going to have to share a room. We’ll see how that works. And poor little Kulia gets to sleep in a closet! But no matter how cramped and crazy the weekend will be, I know it’s going to be incredibly fun because we are family. We are blessed with having spouses who like and respect eachother, in-laws that are kind, and cousins that are sweet. So bring on the chaos! I’ve got my camera at the ready and all I need are some sweet little nephews to make my day!

Look out Walls clan ’cause the McLaughlins are coming to town!
