Thanksgiving, exploring spaces








The drive to Phoenix wasnt bad, the boys didnt fight, we all just listened to music and enjoyed the ride. Toms grandmas house felt like home, she is a typical grandma, cozy, sweet, warm. His family treats the boys well. We are family now, I have to keep reminding myself. I have a tendency to resist new relationships, and not allow people inside my life so easily. It feels good to let my guard down and relax. His family is now my family, and they have welcomed us with open arms.
Steveo and I went for a walk, stumbled upon a little church, the light hit it perfectly, I took a few pictures of it and thought about how in other states there are little churches like this on every corner. Not so much in California. Im happy I got to spend time in Arizona and see where Tom grew up.

I usually dont get close to other peoples family, I never saw the point, I figured, they arent going to be around very long ( I usually leave, or they leave) Im just trying to break old habits.
