My older sister Rachael and her family arrived on a Friday afternoon just in time to send the men off to a Fathers and Sons Campout. Eric took my 2 boys; my brother Kenny and brother-in-law Ismael went along too. Eric's sister's husband, Brad, and his son joined the group and they headed for the hills. They had a great time and us women-folk didn't mind being left at home...not a bit. We enjoyed a yummy pasta dinner, treats, and a movie for the little girls while the mommies went to the local Farmers' Market. We had a blast sampling and buying tasty treats. Then we stayed up late talking and playing games.
Of course the highlight for my kids was the Cousin Time. Here are a few pictures.
Running in the sprinklers in our front yard.
Man our lawn looks good. I wish it looked that good now.
Saturday we went to Rexburg's Nature Park. It has a playground but it also has a river/pond and some fun nature trails. The kids (and moms) had a great time exploring, strolling and seeing some wildlife. Note: Mason missed this outing because he was at a scouting activity.
The Bobbsey Twins: Sienna & Renae
these two are 2 years apart and look as different as can be
but they are great friends and love dressing alike.
They are dedicated email pals when they are not together.
Tessia and Sadie are just a year apart.
They make a cute pair of "twins" too.
Maya and Colby are also just a year apart. Usually they have nothing to do with each other.
No animosity just apathetic. But this time they had great fun playing together.
Here are the "Mommies" -- it was windy and a kid took the picture.
Not a favorite but sometimes you have to document that the moms really do exist.
