Cousin Visit

Recently we had the huge blessing of my sister and her husband visiting with their three sons. Eight children under the age of 8 years old for almost a whole week......equals lots of crazy moments, but great memory building too!

Of course Gracie (as well as the rest of us) loved meeting 8 week old baby Joe!

There were seven boys to play with cars and trucks together!

Luke and Ben loved reading to their younger cousins.

Jacob even read to baby Joe.

Luke and Ben also shared their bikes and helped Jack learn how to ride a bike without training wheels while he was here.

Cousin time

 

 

One day we had a chance to visit a small park together.

We were supposed to be able to pick pecans at the park, but we could not find any!

 In this bunch of kiddos we have birthdays in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013...and one more coming in 2014! (Seven boys and only one girl!!)

Another day we showed the Meyer family one of our favorite parks. All of the kids in this family ADORE trains, so it was a great day!

The Daddies of this crazy bunch of kids.

These climbing nets were a favorite attraction.

 Waiting to ride the water boats.

The weather was beautiful and we had a picnic lunch at the park.

Here we have them in order, (although we are missing baby Joe in the stroller!) Ages 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1!

  Jacob just adored baby Joe. He couldn't get enough of him.

Gracie and Jacob got to help Aunt Kamie make cookies.

Baby Joe supervised the cookie making and just looked cute!

It was Aunt Kamie and Uncle Josh's first time to meet Caleb.

It was also our first time to meet Joe!

Here is another early Christmas present for Grammy and Papa, Grandchildren # 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15, 18 and 20 all together.

We love you Kam, Josh, Jack, George and Joe! Thank you so much for coming to visit with us!
