layover

My uncle, Viesturs, and cousin, Luiza, were in Los Angeles last week, visiting from Latvia. Yesterday, on their way back to Latvia, they just happened to have a layover in Minneapolis. I drove over there after my workout, and Kevin met us there after work, and it was such a treat to see them, even if it was only for a couple of hours at the airport.

My uncle is my mom's youngest brother, and I have always loved spending time with him - he is super smart and fun to talk to. Luiza, at 10 years old, is my youngest cousin, and I love her! She is smart, fun, energetic (the last picture is of her speeding around the airport on her Heelys), affectionate, and she and I get along great (despite having only met twice now).

Luiza is moving to Holland with her mom next month, and Kevin and I are thinking a trip to Amsterdam just might be in order for next summer. Fun!
