Cousin visit

These pictures are out of order, but I don't feel like fixing them, so here they are. My brother and his wife and 3 kids came for a quick weekend visit last week. They have a little girl, Sydney, 6 months older than Izzy and they had a blast. They finally actually played together, instead of just playing next to each other or fighting for 3 days straight. The best part of cousins coming is all the new "tricks" that get passed. Isabelle is now a pro at exiting the house via dog door, throwing very heavy objects down the stairs, and chalking on the house. I'm sure Sydney also has some fun new tricks she's been showing off at home.

The girls took a bath in my great big tub one night and didn't want to get out even well after pruny time. Afterward, they snuggled up with their milk and blankies to some good old "Mary Poppins."



We spent a morning at Thanksgiving Point Farm Country in hopes all 4 children would love it. Isabelle and Sydney, did but Kali was a little grumpy and Nick was oblivious, but happy.

Here is Isabelle trying to give Kali a kiss to make her feel better. It obviously did a lot of good.



Izzy spent most of the time trying to push either Kali or Nick's stroller. Isn't she so helpful?!



Izzy and Sydney liked pushing the same stroller together. SO cute!



The trip is not complete without a pony ride and a cheesy smiley picture.


The three hooligans, Sydney, Danny, and Isabelle, behind bars!



She kept calling this baby horse, Jake. Yes, her dog is actually bigger than this small horse, however our dog is black, so I'm not sure what she was thinking, other than little horses are really dogs.


We had a great time staying up too late and hanging out. Isabelle had a great time with all 3 cousins. Taking toys and kisses to Kali, trying to pick up Nick, who she called, "Nock," and getting to play kitchen with Sydney. They also brought their golden retriever, so Jake was in heaven with a playmate. We always love when they come to visit.
