My sister, Angie, teaches school in Idaho, but was off last week for Spud Harvest. They get two weeks off so the kids can work on the farms harvesting potatoes. Cool huh? She stayed at my mom's house for a whole week, which was awesome. We surprised my mom and had a girl's night out for her birthday. We went to see Love Happens and then out to dinner - just us five girls! Thanks to Nate and Marcos, we were able to leave the kids behind! I haven't laughed so hard in a LONG time. We had SUCH a good time! Unfortunately we were having WAY too much fun to think about bringing a camera along.
Later that week, we decided to take all the grandkids to the Dinosaur Park with my mom. Dylan hit the jackpot - two times at the dinosaur park in one week! He was in seventh heaven! Anyway, we had a great time. We brought a little picnic, played on the playground and then walked around looking at all the dinosaurs. It is always so much fun to get together with ALL the cousins at the same time. That doesn't happen very often since Angie lives in Idaho, but when it does we try to take full advantage of our time together. All the cousins play well together, but you never know how they're going to pair off. This time, Dylan was Tony's shadow, Connor and Kamyn were best buddies, and Preston and Tanner occasionally played together but mostly wandered around like 2 year olds. Luckily Kenya, the one and only girl, is too young to notice that she is surrounded by boy cousins. :)
