We had a wonderfully wild weekend! Today, we spent the afternoon with my cousins and a few aunts and uncles at a picnic at the lake. The kids had a great time roasting marshmallows, playing kickball and gorging on oreos!
Preston may have roasted his marshmallow just a little too much!
It might be because he was enjoying playing in the fire just a little too much!
Quincy and Harper were the kick ball team cheerleaders!
Kick ball is a rough game....we did laugh about how when we were growing up, our grandma always said you don't get to win just because you are a little kid, you have to earn it! She never "let us" win - ever! I think my cousins may have picked up on this behavior, especially after I watched them throw the little kids out just like they do the big ones! :) Nobody was bleeding, therefore you are having fun!
Colin and Cameron named their hogs. Colin's hog (above) is named Preston. He says if Preston named his hog Collin, then all is fair! Preston was honored!
Cameron's pig (the one with the big spot on his rear end) is named 2012 Toyota Hamry. They all have names now!
Saturday, in addition to our normal ball practice schedule, we attended 2 baby showers. There are actually 5 babies due in our family (and none of them are me)! I had to include this photo, because cousin Melissa has been trying to become friends with Harper for 2 years now! We see her all the time because she lives just down the street, but Harper does not really want to be friends! She actually crawled up on Melissa yesterday and was very happy to sit with her! It was a good moment in their history!
Harper and Quincy were also excited to be a product of the clearance queen's latest shopping excursion! They got all sorts of new clothes and shoes and were so thrilled! Thank you aunt Jeanne and Grandma Nellie! They looked very pretty this weekend!!
It was the one of the quickest weekends on record! We accomplished a lot, ran a lot, and saw a lot of people. It was fun, but I am ready to go back to work so I can rest!
