The girls were so thrilled to have time with their cousins! Aren't they all so cute.
Grammie came with her dog Chloe. Nellie just adore Chloe and is so very gentle with her. Chloe gets scared of kids pretty easily but she seems to really like Nellie. Nellie always seems to ask us the same question every time she is around Chloe "Why can't we get a dog?" I am just not enough of a dog fan to have one while I am still having babies. Maybe once the kids all get older. Who knows.
Janie and Braysen had fun playing together and seemed to get along pretty well.
The kids were going to do a performance for us but instead just all got dressed up and didn't do a play just took a bow. It was nice because it was warm enough for us to go swimming the next day so Sandy let us come over and swim. The girls were so thrilled to get to wear their new suits.
Lizzy has been really into swimming for a few years now so I wasn't surprised at how well she did.
Nellie keeps doing better each year and I think she is going to do great this year. She loved the swimming.
Janie had so much fun swimming. She has always LOVED water, but last year was hard because the pool in Concordia was too deep for her so it wasn't as fun. I am so excited to go swimming a ton this year because the girls are all going to do so well and I won't have a baby to worry about, we all can just have fun at the pool.
Nellie ended up getting really brave and getting really deep. She was so proud of herself.
Lizzy getting some good snuggles from Sandy.
Janie was super attached to Kevin this trip so when she got cold and wanted to cuddle I was all over that. She was funny though because she got in and out of the pool probably 30 times. She would get out and say she was cold and then go and get right back in.
Jake and Kara had us over to their house for a barbecue and smores. The girls loved doing the smores, I think it has been too long since we last did them that they didn't remember them. They loved cooking their marshmallow just right in the fire.
Big surprise that Nellie got chocolate all over her face. She is the messiest kid I know. And with chocolate especially. She was mad at us though because we only let her have two smores. Terrible parents.
Janie was so tired on this trip from not getting good enough naps and going to bed too late that she went and laid down on the rock with Lizzy's blanket since we forgot hers. Poor baby.
On Saturday Kelli's neighborhood had an Easter egg hunt. It was fun to watch the kids get the eggs. We didn't bring their Easter baskets so the girls decorated walmart bags. They are so funny.
Back to Kelli's house to see their spoils. Nellie was so cute because we all know how much she loves candy, but one of her eggs had Dora candy in it and she didn't hesitate to give to to Jane. It was really sweet of her.
The kids had fun coloring eggs. I brought an egg kit that I though looked neat but I didn't realized what it was, you just put some color in a bag and stick an egg in it and rub it around. It was nice for the adults because it was clean and easy, but it was so quick that I think the kids felt a little jipped.
After dying the eggs and after Jane woke up from her super long nap (the other kids were going crazy waiting for her to wake up) Grammie did another Easter egg hunt for the kids and they thought it was the neatest thing especially because Grammie put money in some of the eggs. We had a really good time in St. George and hope we get to to go back before too long!
