Where do we start?

We have a lot of catching up to do, so I think we'll just pick up where we left off... somewhere in the middle of July!
We really miss our cousins out in the east... Before we left we did a wonderful 4 day babysitting swap with them. They went to a relaxing beach in Virginia, and we went to New York. We are so grateful for them for lovingly watching our kids, and they even braved a Sacrament meeting with 4 kids under 5! When I went to pick up our kids from Audrey and Aley's house, I envisioned a joyful reunion, but they really didn't want to leave their cousins!!

Here are some highlights from when our little cousins stayed with us:

Monkey-ing around at our apartment's playground.

Lots of swimming at the pool! The Aunas are little fishes. Audrey showed Elise how to swim and hold her breath under water! We were so impressed!

Bathtime and silly, soap beards.

Miniature golfing, in other words, hitting golf balls with clubs.

Bedtime laughter/ silliness while camping out together.

We love you!
