A Second Trip

On July 5th, we packed the family up again and headed east to David’s parents.  His sisters were coming with their kids, and we had some errands to run while the grandparents watched the girls.  David spent the weekend with us at his parents then headed home Sunday night to work for the week.  The girls and I stayed at his parents’ for the rest of the week—that was not the original plan, but things change.  We had a great time with the in-laws and even got to visit some old friends.

All the cousins posing—grandma wanted a new picture for her frame.  I’m not sure the kids cooperated well enough to get a good picture.
We spent one whole day at a children’s museum that was not too far from the farm.  The kids had a great time exploring, and didn’t even get to everything.

They had a “river” area outside.

The dinosaurs roared and moved.  Bria was scared, but Bentley loved it.

These blocks were really cool.  The pictures of what you could build with them was amazing.

Aunt H and I decided to help Bria make a more stable house than the one that was already built.  We spent a good hour figuring and constructing.

Outside the museum, grandpa had to take a picture of all of us.
At the farm, the kids enjoyed playing with each other, grandparents, exploring the farm, playing in the pool, and lots more.

Two sisters who really love each other, even though they may fight some times.
We came back home on Saturday and are trying to get back into our “normal” routine.  I thought things would slow down when we got back, but it looks like we will be busy for a couple of weeks yet.
