Cousins Are Awesome

Look at these two sweet girls! Ava and Sophie were born only three weeks apart. We went to Boise over Memorial Day weekend, and the kids all got to play with their cousins. It is so fun for Josh, Ben and Lillie to have cousins of about the same age to play with when we go to Boise, and now Sophie will have a built in buddy too! I remember going to Nebraska every summer, and one of the best things about it was having cousins to play with.




Josh and Ben were both excited to be there for Ethan's 10th birthday party, and had a great time rock climbing. The biggest thrill was when Ben slipped off the wall and flipped upside down in his harness, quite an adventure!

Lillie just loves Eowyn, and is always so excited to have a little girl to play with. This time she also liked playing with Ella, but she is still figuring out how we are all connected, because while she knows Winnie is her cousin, she kept calling Ella, "Winnie's cousin." (She also called her "the running girl", an appropriate description -I have finally found a kid who runs as much as Ben did at that age!)

  1. Lots & lots of cousins! Thank goodness Ben was in a harness, that would give you a thrill. I know the one picture is of Josh climbing the wall, is the other one Ethan?
