Surprise Visitors

The kids had no idea their cousins were coming to visit.  It was a very happy surprise!

 

The girls spent a lot of time making fairy houses.

Here are the boys on a hike that we all went on.

 

 

Ethan loved the attention that Matthew gave him. 

 

The girls at the botanical garden.  It was such a beautiful place!

 

There was a fun playroom for kids.

 

There was an even more fun outdoor play area for kids.  This picture doesn't show a fraction of it- there was so much cool stuff.  They had a big cave, tree houses, and so much more!

The Japanese garden was my favorite place, it was so beautiful!

 

We had so much fun with them here!!

 

I thought this picture of Emily next to the cherry blossom was so pretty.

 

Andrew looking at the koi.

The fish were huge!!

So beautiful!

We did a lot of walking this day but the kids all did great!

 

More people need to visit so we can take them here.

 

Posing by the waterfall.

Andrew at the tulips.

 

I loved this picture of Ethan hugging Jen.  There was another picture right before this with him looking at her with a huge smile. :)

The city museum is a crazy place full of crazy stuff to climb, huge slides, tunnels, and tons of unique things to do.

I think that is Emily climbing way up there.

 

They were so sweaty from climbing.

 

 

 

Swimming at the rec plex.

Eliza loved both Brian and Jen.

My kids have never been to build a bear and Hannah wanted to go for her birthday so we celebrated early.

 

Fun at the zoo.
