Grandma is a saint!!! That's all there is to say for her to have the grand kids for a week and play, play, play. There were lots of video games, food, running, playing, wrestling, "can I have a soda?", and believe me the boy stench was unreal!!! Cameron was in school, but he squoze in every free minute with his cousins--he played for an hour or so before school, then it was right back over to Grandma's after school. He even slept over 3-4 of the nights. Luckily Spencer was happy to go home to his own bed. We went to 7-Peaks and Chadders twice, mini golf, the older boys went shooting, and the highlight was the overnight at Heber Valley Camp. We had 3 cabins and a big pavilion all to ourselves. It was a ton of work for 24 hours, but the kids loved every second of it.
The kids were pretty good little helpers,,,I love Spencer carrying the big sleeping bag.

It was so nice to have them all sit at their own table and eat.

Playing in the sandbox
I bought little wood kits that you glue and paint--airplanes, boats, tractors. It kept the kids busy for at least an hour--hallelujah.
Scott and Cam working on his boat.
Spencer blowing his whistle at Grandpa,,,"get back to work!"

Everybody hovering around Ryan as he starts the fire---boys are so weird.
Loved the tall fire pit,,,so much safer.
AAHHH!!
EEEEKKK!!
"I have a marshmallow roasting stick and I know how to use it!!"
We are serious about marshmallow roasting!!

One night Chad brought Cam and Matt's boys to our house for a little Halo action with Matt on X-box live. They had a good time, and the rest of us stayed at Grandma's and worked on filling the State Quarter Books the kids got. Personally I had a blast--Kyler and I worked together and there was a lot of woo-hooing, high-fiving, darn California quarters. It was great.
Here is my little quarter buddy!! Yah, we're bonded forever now.
A final picture before they all headed up to Seattle for Caden's baptism. We had such a great time and already miss you all.
Looks like a great trip. Enjoy!!!!
ReplyDeletePat is a saint. Good thing she is used to that boy smell in her house having raised 5 of them! Cousins camp looked like so much fun. So sad we missed all of you.
