cousin love

we had some serious cousin love last week.
these guys drove all the way from chicago to see us.

one adult + 3 small children + eight hours in the car=
one amazing auntie s. mama!




and, good gracious- we had a ball.



there were dance parties,
which included the chicken dance.....



and the hokey pokey.....
and the not so classic but highly requested "i like to move it."




there was trampoline sprinkler jumping,



and more trampoline sprinkler jumping.



there was much baby adoring over the youngest of the pod- tbaby.



rbaby pretty much bothered mothered tbaby all weekend.
stealing her pacifiers for herself,
and accidently knocking larger toys on her teeny tiny cute self.



there were lots of older girl cousin giggles,
and playing with lip gloss, doll baby's and dress up clothes.




there was "uncle m. bounce me!" jumping time,



and of course- a group feeding visit,
to the turtle creatures.



and some special bigger family hang out time time with grandad k.,
{in between his flights to and from our city}-
at nana d's comfy lake house.



thx for braving the journey to spend a week with us, h.cousins-
ya'll are roadtrip rockstars.
{xoxo- from your ks cousins.}
