Cousins

Here is Lulu with her two cousins Josiah and Kamin. Below is a picture of them 5 years ago when they were our ring bearers at our wedding. Wow how they have grown up!
For the past week we have been spending time with family. Mark's brother Mike and his wife Julie came to visit with their two boys Josiah (9) and Kamin (7). Lulu and Levi had a blast with their cousins. They parked their Airstream out in front of our house and we all agree that the trip went way to fast. They spent a lot of time just playing. Here is Kamin and Lulu playing Lego's.And here's Kamin with Levi.One of the days they all decided they wanted to bake a cake. It was so fun to watch them figure out what they needed and put it all together. They did a great job and the best part was that evening they got to eat their creation for dessert. Then Mark and Mike's mom came by. This was the first time since Levi was born that Connie got to see all her grandchildren together. It was getting late and trying to get a good picture was a bit tricky.Here is Mike, Josiah, Mark and Kamin playing Lego's. Here all the cousins are piled into our mini-van going to the store. Then one of the days we all went to the Children's Museum. Here they are in the tree house at the museum. Levi loves climbing on everything and had a blast playing on this fire truck. Lulu and Levi playing on the fire truck.Then we went over to the restaurant and Lulu made Levi and I some lunch.Here Lulu and Josiah are flying an airplane with Uncle Mike on the windshield. Levi got to try out the seats on the plane. Then next day the boys got out their skate boards and road and Lulu kept up with them on her trike. Then Josiah got to try Uncle Mark's long board.....surfs up! And Kamin and Lulu spent hours playing in the rocks and dirt.
Time went too fast and we can't wait to see them again hopfully sooner then later. We love you guys! Thanks for such a great time!

Thank you very much for commenting on my blog. You have a beautiful family. I love Adventures In Odyssey and I think Lulu would like it also.
I wish we lived closer too.How old is Lulu?

One of the joys of blogging is to record these family events. I love the photo of Lulu watching the "cake making" with her head in her hands waiting patiently. Making memories . . .

I am a proud father, father-in-law, and grandpa. Your pictures told a great story.
Love you.
