Joey’s parents and brother came to California over Thanksgiving break and rented a house near San Luis Obispo for all of us to meet up at. We stayed at the house with his family over the break and were able to see some new parts of California.
We spent some time at Avila Beach.
We also enjoyed walking along a few of the nearby docks.
On Thanksgiving Day, a few more of Joey’s relatives that live nearby joined us at the house and they even brought along their cute dogs.
It was really great to meet some more of Joey’s family. They were all very welcoming and nice!

The morning after Thanksgiving, Joey and his brother Charlie decided to go boogie boarding at Pismo Beach.
The rest of us went to find them a little later in the day. However, we weren’t sure whether or not we would be successful since we had no idea where on the beach they would be.
Luckily, Joey’s mom was able to spot them from the dock and caught up to them as they were packing up to leave.
It was a bit bright that day.
On the last day of our break, Joey, his parents, his brother, and myself went to Cambria to see elephant seals on the beach.
There were a ton of them!
It was really amazing to see seals in the wild at such a short range.
I had a really great time with Joey’s family over the break and look forward to spending more time with them in the future!
Oh, did I mention it was a little sunny that day?
