Family and Fun

My sister Carlene came to visit with three of her kids (Keller 9, Emma 3, and Zachary 6wks). They live in Atlanta so its about a 6 hour drive. We had a lot of fun while they were here wearing out the kids. We went to the park and the pool. We also went and toured where Noel works. We had a fund Saturday night at the Bowling Ally.

Emma was great she beat my score. She beat her Aunt Angela's score.

Grace gives me a high five at the bowling ally. It's her newest skill.



Grace and Mom at the lanes.

Keller knocking down some pins. He enjoyed bowling so much he is anxious to get back and bowl again.



Grace inspected all of the bowling balls.


While they visited we also made a couple of trips to the beach. Grace enjoyed watching her cousins and playing with them in the sand.

We tried to get a posed shot of Emma and Grace this was the best one.

Keller and Noel played Frisbee!

Emma collected lots of sand and water in her bucket.

Grace loves to walk along the beach with her feat in the water.

Grace was very interested in her little cousin Zachery. She tried to get a good look at him whenever we weren't watching.

Video 1: Grace likes to help unload the dishwasher. She also likes to chase the vacuum which leads me to a bit of a tangent. I have a video of her chasing the vacuum cleaner and that got me to thinking. Kids now days have the potential of being so much more embarrassed when they are older. Now we can have pictures and videos of all the silly things they do, as if the stories told by parents weren't bad enough. Not only do we have them but post them to the internet for everyone to see. So I decided as cute as it is to watch Grace chase the Vaccum, I'll keep that story to myself.

Video 2: Yes, Grace did end up getting the bucket of water poured over her head. I stoped the camera in a futile attempt to stop it but 3 year olds are just too fast.
