Cousin Fun!

This past weekend we watched Jim and Crystals kids. I picked them up and took them to the Library to see the dollhouse's they had on display. All the kids thought it was cool to see the little houses. We also found a kid area where they could use tickets to go "fishing, bean bag toss, or get their face painted."
Sawyer, Sydnee and Abby chose to get their faces painted and the rest chose to go "fishing!" Sawyer had a dog face and Abby and Sydnee had a witch with a broom painted on their faces. Derek, Caleb, and Becca got "goodie bags"! After we left the Library we went to Sam's Club and to my surprise the kids didn't fuss about going shopping. After shopping we went home and ate Little Caesars Pizza. We then raced down to Sydnee's school for her walk-a-thon.
Later that evening after all six were dressed in their pj's we watched Nims Island and ate popcorn.
The kids brushed and than we laid them down to sleep.
They all went right to sleep. Well Sydnee didn't but she always gets to excited when she has a sleep-over.
The next day we ate at MC's for lunch. (We just had to try out the new play land toys)
They are showing us their toys they got in their kids meals.
After lunch we decided to go up the canyon for a nature walk.
It's a real fun walk along the river. There is signs to teach them about different things they may see or hear on the trail. It also has fun things to play on. The tepee, metals bugs, bat houses, animal tracks and a little hut that looks like a beaver dam were some of the many things the kids got to see.

It was getting pretty cold by the end of the trail! We packed up and headed home to get ready for dinner. Jim and Crystal came and picked the kids up early and they were all sad the day had to end. Sydnee is already talking about next time. It was great, all the kids played really well together and it wasn't to bad to have six kids for a day! (Only the looks as some people counted them with their eyes or fingers were bad) Hey we do live in Utah folks!

Looks like you had a ton of fun. You really could have all six of those kids though..if sydnee and becca were twins they are spaced perfectly apart.
