Cousins Come to Town








As soon as we returned from Florida, our 2 neices from Memphis flew in for a few days. Sarah is 16 and Caroline is 13 so I had 4 kids at once, 16,15,13,12 wow Thank God I had 2 boys and 2 girls, there was some mixed teenage hormones in the house which was a good thing.. I can not imagine 4 boys or 4 girls ewwwwww.. Anyway we had a blast with them we shopped and ate and shopped and ate we went to Splashtown waterpark and we went to the movies and we rented movies and we shopped and we ate:) My boys love hanging with them and chit chatting about everything you can think of some things I was just like ok ok !lol but I so remember talking about the same things with my friends:) We all had so much fun with them and loved being with them! I loved hanging and having girl time with them,it was sooooooo nice shopping and no one tellimg me lets go.. I am tired, I am hungry, I am thirsty and the most famous line I AM BORED>> WHAT??? How can you be bored shopping! So needless to say I loved hanging with them and shopping til I dropped and seriously I did a few times.. We went to the Houston Galleria, I had never been and I have to say I was very very impressed but oh my goodness we walked and walked and walked I even had to find a chair in one store and sit, I know y'all cant believe that but I sure did! and then we were on the hike back to the car to leave, half way back there was a Godiva Chocolate store and I was like STOP I need a caffeine fix to get me back, well,, ONE CHOC STRAWBERRY was $8.00 OH NO!! I was like come on I can buy my own and make them! so we did not get one instead we stopped at the Snow-Cone shop on the way home.. Later in the week my parents came up and brought our nephew Jack who is 7(their brother) and we had a good time with him too! Peyton and Jack have so much fun when they are together they swam and Papa took them to the Children's Museum and they had snow-cones and we introduced him to our sweet neighbors who are 7 and 9 they had a good time together and he went fishing and played tennis and hung out with the boys.. I am sure he enjoyed boy time like I did girl time.. It was so nice having them here, we really miss not living close to them but we pray that they will all stay close! They all left on Monday morning,, My mom was a HUGE HELP, she always is when she comes but this time it was HUGE... she did all the laundry and helped me clean house because they left at 9:00 a.m. and we had our sweet friends from Austin coming in at noon the same day:) stay tuned for our adventure with The Bayer's! There is nothing like Family......
