Get-Away: Family Time (continued)

Here are some more pictures of the fun the cousins (and their parents ;-) ) had together!  The only drawback was that we couldn't enjoy the pool more, but otherwise it was great and too short (as always).  (Though... at times we could've used a full-time nanny to help out with the littles. Hee hee. ;-) )

Watching an show one afternoon.  I think we need to stop having kids or get a bigger couch.

This is the performer of the bunch.  :)

But she probably takes a close second place.

Cool stud impressing the girls.

I've really enjoyed seeing their friendship grow over the years.

There was a little French baby at the French Market in Wheaton.  He'd make his grandpa proud in that little hat!

Some play time at the fountain

Watching the train go by

Strutting her stuff across the yard

A little quality Papa-daughter time on the swing

 Crazy sisters

 And... these two have found their match! :-)

 Westen "accidentally" fell into the pool with his clothes on.  His cousins thought it was HILARIOUS. :-)

Little guy needs some manly shades.  Anyone?

Fun meal times

Cool cousins

Lovely ambience

Fun park outings

 But even at a park you can take some time out to be pensive and cerebral. ;-)  (Sometimes I just wish I knew what was going on inside that little head...)

Ashton didn't think it was fair that the picnic was only for the big people, so he tried to sneak a sandwich.

 Happy to see that Mama had thought of him after all.  What more do you need?

The big boys got a chance to let their inner little boys out, too.

 Cute little buds

And then... the 6 hour delay getting out of the airport on our way home.  Ugh.  It was way longer than the pictures make it look.  Believe me.

Snacks.

 Electronics.

 Movies.

 Games

 More movies

 And... work.

(What did people do in situations like this before the advent of technology? Oh wait, there probably weren't airplanes then either, right? ;-) )
