Vacay

When you combine a "stay-cation" with
a vacation,
you get a vacation where you stay at a relatives house.
We like to call it "Fam-cation"!!

We really appreciate my sister and her family
for more than doubling the size of their family
for a few days.
We had a great time.

The kids had loads of one on one time with their
favorite cousins.

Keira was never wanting for a friend to play with her,
decorate her, hold her, carry her...
I was VERY appreciative for the extra pairs of hands!

Eliza took the time to teach Ben how to swing from the trees.

And with that extra chromosome...

the "monkey" chromosome....

It didn't take him long to figure it out!

Grant and Sydney had a great time pushing each other
as high as they could.

Grant got Sydney up soooo high,
I thought she'd go over the fence into
the neighbor's yard!

The "bean pole" takes a break.

Now looking back I don't think Eliza got any turns
to swing.
But she was a great sport about helping out
all the younger kids!

I think Emma could swing for hours.

Especially when Mom is taking pictures of her!
(this is my favorite picture of the week)

Looks like lots of fun and the big trees are wonderful! But once again, what is that strange green stuff all over the ground . . . is it safe for the kids??

Love these pictures! I used to spend lots of time at the swings in our neighborhood park; it was fun! I never wanted to go too high, though. :)

I love Sydney's skirt! Did you make it.
