Cousins visiting

My brother and his wife were nice enough to let us steal their kids for a couple of weeks... we've had a blast playing and I know both Ada and Sammy will miss them!  Here are random pictures of activities that we did while they were here... I haven't had a chance to blog them... but here they are.  You honestly don't have to look at them, but I wanted to get a couple out to McKay... and Mom... you have more pictures at the the Welfare Ranch and I know some of them are a lot better than these... I ran out of space on my card!  Grrrr....

These two are of the Carousel at the Provo Beach Resort... Great-Grandma wanted to treat the kids to a ride.  Thanks Grandma!  It was fun!

Nells, Grandma and my mom loving on my baby.

Working together at the Children's Museum in SL.

Making 'dinner' at the museum.

Grocery shopping at the museum.

Checking out.

My daughter, the horse... she acts like one even in Primary and has asked to be one for Halloween... perfect outfit!

Grandpa teaching the kids how to fill up the car with air and gas at the museum.

Ada and Sammy had a blast driving, but notice... Aubrey brought her baby in the car with her!  Stroller and all!

Our builders Ada and Devin.

Lego building!  Doesn't every kid like blocks of some kind?  And in true boy fashion... when the tower got big enough to fall over the boys finished pushing it over and rolling around in them.  Nice.

This was Ada's favorite part... She thought it was so fun to color while the thing spun!

Daddy napping with baby.

Picnic at Grandma and Grandpas!  Don't you think that my baby looks like my sister?  I swear that she's a combination of me and Sharon... but I think that she looks more like Jer than the other two do as well....

Borrowing Great Grandma's umbrella during our freak rain/hail storm.

This is Aunt Margaret.  She had 12 kids and was a school teacher when they we all raised.  Amazing lady... and a good cuddler for babies!

Playing at the ranch that my Great Aunt and Uncle (Frank and Margaret) are running on their mission.  They raise cows and probably chickens too... for the Church Welfare program.  We got to see their chickens (Sammy's favorite!  I had to keep warning him not to scare them too much or they would peck him), cows (Aubrey said they were pigs, and Devin wanted to ride one), take a hay ride (Ada got to handle the reins at one point while Uncle Frank opened a gate), ride on Lady (one of their horses), watch while the other horse "got in time out" (throwing a fit because it didn't want Lady to leave), ride a four wheeler, swing on the rope swing in the barn, see baby owls, and hug our wonderful Aunt and Uncle.  (I can't say that I grew up with their kids, but Bam Bam (Ada's favorite boy at Bear Lake) is their grandson, and Julie... their youngest of 12 kids is my age and we used to play Uno together.  I remember a particular all nighter when they visited our home once. And I used to watch their very active boys try to run up the side of the A-Frame and see how far they could get.)
