"Happenings from the past week"

Our cousins from New York have been staying with us now for a week. It's been a blast!
One of the days, the kids hot-glued candy together to make things.
 This is to be a truck
 Sam making his semi.
 All finished.
 We played lots of games...
 And made big messes with crayons to color
 Serena
 And then (of course) lots of volleyball! :)

 Annette and Brenda
One of the most played games was "The Settlers of Catan"
Midnight snack...
 Saturday morning, Uncle Eldon took us all out to eat for breakfast! :)
Some of us got so much food it hardly fit on the table! We did manage to eat all or most of it! By the way. :)
 Titus tryin' to look pretty :)
We made lookalike outfits for some of the girls. Sunday we took pictures.
 Susanna, Sharla, Sheila, and Brenda

 Sharla and Sheila
 Brenda and Susanna
 Sunday we visited a church, and since we didn't know anyone there (except for our friends and cousins who also were visitors) we kids lined up on the railing outside the door and clapped and cheered for everyone that walked out! When they ask what we were doing it for. We said, "We are just testing peoples sense of humor!"


This is just a few of the things that happened that we got pictures of. Things we didn't get pictures of was things like, Hauling hay, Spreading manure, Fixing the car, Dishes, laundry, school, etc.

It all looks so fun...except the coloring part...Volley ball was GRAND!!! The picture of Shawn and Kenny with all that food cracks me up!!! The pink hat on Titus...no comment. Love the outfit pictures, of course. And it was so much fun clapping for the embarressed people.
There, I think I commented about each of your pictures. Wasn't that really nice of me?!
