i love my cousins

all summer long zayne has wanted to come stay at "aunt tasey's" house.  well pretty much the only reason he wanted to stay was because miles has a big stuffed alligator that he wanted to play with.  needless to say, when tara asked if we would keep the kids so they could go the the cattle baron's ball, i said yes.  zayne wanted to stay with us and what zayne wants, i give him!  so kris and tara dropped them off with us around 3 on saturday afternoon and then they left to go to their hotel room to get ready for the ball

saturday afternoon we all just hung out for a while and let the kids destroy our house.  man it sure did get messy in about 10 minutes...they had toys out that i didnt even know miles had

the alligator

funny girl

snack time

after snack time, we went over to kris and tara's hotel room so we could swim in the indoor pool

miles wanted nothing to do with that cold water

like a fish in the water

after swimming we went back to our house for grilled cheese, popcorn and a movie

we blew up the air mattress all watched movies for the rest of the night

sunday morning we woke up, have breakfast, changed diapers and clothes, fixed hair, brushed teeth and headed out to a park to feed some ducks and the baby ducks

then we decided to chase the ducks

watchin cousins and the ducks

hide-n-seek
