First couple days of VaCaTiOn

My dad, brother, sister in-law, niece and nephew were here for almost two weeks. We spent the first week hanging out low key around the house with the exception of going to the zoo. We met my cousin Abby and her family at the zoo. It was fun for all of our kids to get to know each other and hang out.


The picture above we told the kids to wave at the elephants to say hi....funny how at a certain age you can tell a kid to do something and they do it with know questions asked...

This lady had a bird out to show the kids and told them they could look at it, but not touch. I was so afraid one of them was going to touch. I don't know how many times I'm in a store or somewhere with Hunter and he always has to touch things, but this time he didn't. Thank goodness!!


When we got home from the zoo we decided to have Popsicles and watch the kids ride their bikes. I got so many cute pictures of the cousins together. The above picture reminds me of when I was a kid hanging out with my own cousins.

I just couldn't get enough of little Miss Taytum! I could have just stole her, but I knew her mom would have noticed her missing on the way back to Kansas.

Yeah, I don't think you have to worry about kids touching anything with a mouth. LOL! Taytem's eyes are gorgeous. She looks so much like Karen's daughter Madison when she was that age.

I love the pic of the 3 of them on the driveway. That does remind me of old fashioned summer fun, well minus the bike helmet. Never had those when I was little. :)

We had a great time visiting everyone! I have to agree little Taytum sure is a cutie, I also had a great time with Tytus skipping down the sidewalk singing Off to see the Wizard at the zoo!
