Kids say the darnedest things...


There has been so much laughter the last few days around here. There is nothing better than cousin sleepovers and skipping school. =) My sister Traci is in town with her family from Alabama. She hadn't been home for nine years so we are all very excited to have her here. Along with herself she brought her hubby, Steve, and her sons Jake (21) and Sam (7). Sam is very entertaining. They all have southern accents, however Sam's is particularly strong. Another nephew Cael (6) keeps insisting that Sam talks like a cowboy and that he must be from Texas because that is where the cowboys are from. Cael and Sam are having a blast and they have been practicing for the upcoming wrestling season. The night before last they were at Auntie Molli's house and the kids were kinda hanging out upstairs and Charli (4) had fallen asleep. (It was pretty late) Cael & Sam decided to turn on the light so they could practice their wrestling moves, somehow Cael's head ACCIDENTALLY hit Charli's head. It was hilarious listening to Sam and Cael tell about how it happened. These kids kill me. Last night they had their second cousin sleepover and they all stayed at Granny's house.
Tomorrow we are heading to Idaho for Sidney's (18) graduation. She is grandkid number five out of 21 for my parents. On the way we are going to be taking the somewhat scenic route up to Crown Point then on to Multnomah Falls,  then the fish hatchery. It should be pretty fun with all the little kiddos. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with us for that part of the trip. We try to get together for graduations and other special events. I'm sure in the next few years we may start getting together for weddings again. I love my family and I am so glad to be a part of such a crazy, fun, big, loving family. I will hopefully get some pictures up of our adventures over the next several days.
