Cousins!!

Maren: 
What an amazing week!! This last Tuesday my Nonna and Nonno came to visit and they brought two very special people with them! Our cousins, Hayden and Jimi (we call him Bubba), are visiting from New Jersey and they came to stay with us for a while. Mommy and daddy planned all kinds of fun stuff for us to do and we had a blast!! 
Mommy had to work on Wednesday so the three of us got to hang around the house and help daddy set up the tent to sleep in. I really tried to sleep out there too but found all of the noises a bit spooky. In the end, I decided that I had better watch over mommy since she would be sleeping alone. So, we had slumber parties in her bed which was plenty of fun! 
On Thursday we went on a really fun raft trip. Daddy, Nonna, Bubba, and I all rode in our raft while mommy and Hayden rode in a little boat called a "Tahiti". I took turns riding in it for a while too and really loved going down the little rapids. I kept saying "wheeee"!!!  We had a really nice day on the river and stopped for a pic-nic too. I kept asking when we were going to get to do it again! 
Friday and Saturday we spent hanging around the house by there was definitely no shortage of fun. Mommy bought us a slip and slide and some super soakers and we set up the big pool that Nonno bought for us.... We played in the water and had some pretty big water fights. Daddy also built us a zip line behind the house and we had lots of fun riding that. 
Sunday was the last full day we were together and mommy booked us a special trip on the Jet Boats.  We had a really fun trip with a big yummy breakfast in the middle. 
Hayden and Bubba are heading to Pica's house for a while now then mommy, Maddox and I will pick them up to head to Jersey for a while. 

















Maddox: 
This last week was really a lot of fun. I got to meet my cousins Hayden and Bubba from New Jersey and they were both really neat. I really liked watching them play and they both made me laugh!  My Nonna and Nonno came up with them and we had lots of special family time. 
Unfortunately, I didn't get to go on the raft trip.  Mommy and daddy were afraid I might fall in the water! I did get to go on the Jet Boats with everyone but I slept the whole way there and the whole way back! 
I also had ribs for the first time this week... Well, really I just munched on one of the bones that didn't have any more meat on it. It felt really good on my mouth because I am getting THREE of my upper incisors all at once. I am pretty unhappy about the whole thing! My nose has been running like crazy and I have been drooling like a mad man!!
