Cousins, Cousins, and More Cousins!


Mama has been gone most of the last week to a special class in California; while she was away, Z and I got to spend some quality time with Grandpa and Nana.  They sure spoiled us--we went to the aquarium, the beach, a family reunion/corn roast, and played at home in their swimming pool!  It was a ton of fun.  Here we are above at the grocery store with them--even getting groceries is more fun with Grandpa and Nana; Mama is always mean and doesn't get the cool race car cart at the store, but as you can see, Nana and Grandpa got it for us!  All good things must come to an end, however, and Mama is back.  Luckily, Aunt Amy and my Texas girl-cousins have been visiting, so the fun wasn't completely over after she came home.


Yesterday, we took a boat ride and visited a nearby island with all my first cousins!  We had lots of good photo opportunities, as you can clearly see.  Here, Isaiah was driving us around in the golf cart, and below is Mama, Z and me taking a little break from hiking.  Z was practicing his walking skills on the uneven terrain--he kept getting really mad if we tried to carry him!


We took a "boat-load" of people on our boat ride--here we all are below, except for Mama, who took the picture--Grammie Laurie, Uncle Geoff, Aunt Sara, Aunt Amy, me, Papa Mike, Z, Jackson, Ethan, Macy, Lydia, Braeden, and Kyleigh.  We were only missing Uncle Kelly, Daddy, and Aunt Abbey and Mr. Cory--maybe they can go next time!


It was a lot of fun, though, Z didn't cooperate very well for our cousin "stair-step" picture; he kept trying to walk out of line!  He is so crazy!


I can't wait until Kyleigh and Macy visit us again--what a great time we have when we are all together!
