Cousin Central

-
This week we had Sam and Andrew's cousins, Hunter and Beau, stay a few days with us. After the birthday party, They stayed from Saturday evening to Tuesday evening. They where great boys and we had plenty of fun with them here.
The cousin time was spent playing in the back yard...
Killing snakes...
Eating popcorn out of a dump truck while watching a movie...

Racing cheetas at the zoo...


Going down the slip and slide...
And playing inside when it's raining outside...
We had a fun time:)

I think Sam was exercising his freedom (no clothes) on the slip-n-slide. Must have been his turn and he didn't want to miss out! The only good snake is a dead one but I am glad it didn't appear last Sat. Worms I can handle but NO SNAKES! Four boys....what fun!!!!! Rest time for all!

I have a couple of questions: 1. Who won the race at the zoo? 2. Does Sam always dress that great? Love and miss you!

Today was the first day of cross country season for the Junior High team.  The thing about XC is that the work is put in during the summer months with early morning runs, afternoon runs, track workouts, and hill repeats.  All that work starts to become evident during these days when the races start. Jacob woke up feeling excited to get the season started.  Abigail work up at 5:48am to fix her hair and get ready for the bus.  Abram was pretty nervous as he woke up. 5th grade girls The kids ran their hearts out and did so well for the first meet. Jacob placed 2nd for his team and 3rd overall to help the boys varsity team clutch 1st place for Varsity Boys team.  Abigail looked strong and had an overall 4th place finish for the JV girls and placed 2nd for her team. Abram looked blocked it at the beginning but certainly made up for it with a strong ending to finish 1st place in the JV boys race. Let's go Tigers!

On Saturday, Nathan, Heather and Caleb came for a visit.  We had an absolutely beautiful day, and we wanted to spend the day outside.  Some people had recommended Maymont Park.  Maymont is a park that is hundreds of acres with a stone castle and barn, some animals, and lots of space for the boys to run around. Andrew wanted to get his boots wet and Aunt Heather supervised.  I am glad we crated more boots! The walk with beautiful and we enjoyed visiting along the way. There was lots of rock climbing... and lots of goats! Jacob and Caleb did a great job riding around in the strollers, but needed some time to stretch too! I love this picture of Nathan and Caleb.  He is such a great daddy and I love to see him with Caleb. Sam enjoyed a cigar at the park too.  (I joke!) The little babies ate some grass. Andrew found the cows and wanted to pet them. Sam, Andrew, Nathan and Hap found a great rock to jump off of.  Sam was fearless and surprised u...
