What Cousins are Good For

We got back Monday afternoon from an extended weekend at my sister's in Warner Robins, GA.  The main reason we went was because we had yet to meet our newest nephew/cousin, Jack, who was born last month.

But the other reason we braved the long drive there was because it'd been too long.  We hadn't gotten together in over 6 months!  That is a LONG time in cousin years, especially when so much changes with toddlers and preschoolers in that time frame.



The proof of all of such change is in the fact that THIS visit, Natalie and Anna actually interacted with each other and Noah and Brooklyn did not irritate the fire out of each other.  It was such a fun low-key weekend whereby we lived to tell what cousins are good for.

Playing in the sprinkler. 


Wrestling large animals.


Bounding around a room full of big jumpy equipment.


Water gun target practice.


And everything else water related.


Trampolining.


Weather watching.


Popcorn eating and Movie watching.


Swimming!


Playing at the park.


Baby watching.


Playing dress-up.  (ghosts)


Playing doctor.


Video chatting with Papa.


Making mud soup.


And more baby watching. :)


Yes, it was a wonderful weekend with the Brown/Talmadge clan.
