There were lots of dinners and games and grandma's. We also took a trip to Tony Grove. Dustin brought up the kayaks and that was really fun! We saw a moose walking down to get a drink in the lake. Brooke and Cole were terrified and sobbed and wanted to get in our car and hide and go home. We had dutch oven dinner and marshmallows and grandpa told the story of Old Ephraim. Cole pretended to hunt bears for days after.
All the big kids had a late night movie and popcorn at my house and then a sleepover at Cammie's and a sleepover at grandma's (that was supposed to be outside). Brooke and Macie got scared and came in before it even got too late.
We bought material and made skirts for all the girls (that I still haven't finished-- need to do that!). We went to the pool and had a water fight in the ditch. Cammie and Carrie gave everyone pedicures and we played lots of games with dice, mostly because Catherine kept losing and wanting to play more.
Cole and Michael were such boys and always getting dirty. Cole loved having someone who loves the same things as him. Last year for Christmas Cole and Michael drew each other's names and Carrie and I got them the very same fire truck puzzle without even knowing it. They are two peas in a pod.
It is fun to see them and we wish they lived closer, but at least the aren't in Spain anymore (Carrie missed our wedding because they were living in Spain at the time)! Maybe one of these years we will get to go to there house and visit.
