North Carolina

We started off our trip hanging out with cousins in North Carolina!  Brita was at FSY and Peter had to work so, it was just the younger kids and me.  They played, and made cookies and we spent an enormous amount of time looking for shoes that I was supposed to buy before I left, but I ran out of time.  So eventually Lisa saved us by buying them online and we picked them up because shoe shopping is hard.

The kids made chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, and no bake cookies.  It was A LOT of cookies, but there were only 6 by the time we left.  

A lot of time was spent playing.  I was hoping to make it seem like our road trip wasn't starting until later so it wouldn't seem quite as long.  No idea if that worked or not, but they had lots of fun even when their cousins were in school.

Some day they're going to find out they're too tall to sleep this direction, but it's adorable while it lasts.  They tried it with Ingrid in there, too, but that girl is terrible at letting other people sleep!


They also spent time swimming at the neighborhood pool.  Seriously, we had so much fun hanging out with cousins!

Benton scraped up his knee pretty badly on the bottom of the pool.  It's mostly healed now. (You know, a month later.)
