Costa Mesa + Taylor’s
We are thankful we could head south to see our friends, the Taylor family.
We were blessed to stay in a condo gifted to us for a couple days. Daphné ready to splash!
Cannonball by Django.
Daphné’s name on the can. Thanks Aunt Kellee and Uncle Mark.
Sonic Burgers and nuggets for dinner on the patio with a beautiful pond in the background.
We met up with Uncle Marty at In N Out! Someone that saw this photo said, “You have the same smile as your uncle.” It’s so true - those Hutchinson genes are strong.
Sitting in Uncle Marty’s Mustang.
Backyard pool time with the Taylor’s. Saying hi to the neighbors.
Daphné, Florence and Vivia.
Our brave Django progressing with every pool.
This is their cute doggie Caspian, a Bernedoodle.
Enjoying some Switch time.
And here is the whole crew, both of our families, plus laser-beam-eyed-Caspian. Left to right: Aurlelia, Vivia, Daphné, Florence, me, Django, Tonio, Jordan and Michelle.
There are certain friends we don’t see all the time, but when we do see them, we pick right back up again. As I type this in August 2025, we have been able to see these guys 3 times in less than a year!!! So rare and so cool! We saw them last December 2024 in Turin, Italy, then in Nice. We saw them here in Costa Mesa during our July 2025 trip to California. And we just saw them again in Austria! Such a blessing. Michelle is such a life-giving friend, and I’m so thankful Tonio and Jordan are friends. Thank you Jesus for this family!
