Kissin' Cousins

Finishing up a fun filled weekend tonight. One of Joe's cousin's from Nebraska made a brave road trip out to see us with his wife and three kids - ages 5, 3, and 19 months.

They arrived Thursday evening about suppertime and are leaving bright and early tomorrow. A whirlwind trip but plenty of fun for all the boys and girl.

They hiked up part of Big Mountain Friday with Joe and the boys while I worked.

Saturday we played outside at home - walked around the 'hood. Dads played some golf and Joe made homeade pizza.

We tackled the challenge of 5 kids at the 1030 service of church. We never go to this service because this is when Big O likes to take his nap - he was so restless. Great sermon though - check it out. Worship was great too - I cried (of course) - actually sang "Open the Eyes of my Heart" in spanish - not bad at all!

Then we hit a couple of stores in downtown Whitefish for a few last minute gifts. Then we drove to Sunday Creek for a nice lunch (sub sandwiches) and a super quick hike to a wonderful waterfall.















Then we continued the road trip to Nana and Papa's. Came home for some yummy dinner and another round of Catch Phrase.

The kids are certainly worn out but fun was had by all. The Dads even finished off an entire bottle of Glenfiddich. Yikes!

Stay tuned for more of my crazy week ahead - much fun coming up!!! I hope I have time to keep you informed!
