Cousins!

We're on Spring Break this week! I didn't even realize I needed a break until I woke up on Tuesday and didn't have to rush to get everyone ready. Of course, only having two days of school each week keeps us from getting burned out too much, but a break has been nice.

We spent Monday just relaxing around the house (it was nice not packing lunches for Tuesday). I knew we couldn't spend all week at home and we hadn't been up to visit cousin Eli (or his Mommy and sister) in a while, so we drove up to spend the morning with them.

When we got there, Aunt Kristen was ready for the boys to do some cooking. They made cookie dough truffles!

Getting ready

Caleb got to add sugar

Of course, the babies had to have their fun too...

Checking each other out

Getting a little closer

Got it! He happened to grab the bow right as I snapped the picture! Sweet Hannah Joy didn't fuss at all  : )

 When they were done making candies, the boys went outside to play. They started out on the swing set, but quickly moved on to the sand box.

Digging

Hmmm....maybe we should sit and bury our feet/legs!

 After getting good and sandy playing outside we did the only logical thing... we stripped down the boys and tossed them in the tub!

Getting all clean

Burritos after a bath... Caleb laid still for his picture, it was hard to get a shot of Eli not exposed, he was too silly to lay still! 

 After baths we came downstairs to get lunch. Aunt Kristen made pizza rolls for the boys and quesadillas for the two of us.

We had a great time visiting Eli and playing at his house. We left soon after and ended up in some major traffic, but both boys did great in the car and were patient even though it took around an hour and forty-five minutes to get home (usually a one hour drive).

Thanks, Aunt Kristen, for letting us come play! We had a great time!
