Fun with Cousins

One of the things that we love about AZ is all the time we get to spend outside. We are really lucky to also live by fun cousins who are such great kids.
Ryan and Joey spend a lot of time together. They were looking through this make believe telescope. Joey was looking for Pirate ships, Ryan was looking for Mack trucks. Typical :)


Matthew and Lexi are so big and smart and way fun. Matthew can talk to you for hours about Harry Potter and Percy Jackson while Lexi is content coloring. Joey and Lexi watch movies holding hands. They are really close cousins.
Lexi had a field trip to the Phoenix Zoo and her teacher allowed family members to join in the fun. We were all over it since we got in for $4.00. Not free like DC but definitely worth it.

Its exactly what your thinking.

Still looking for those pirate ships that keep attacking Navy ships. Very smart pirates they are. Nobody messes with the Navy.

Lazy Lions
Silly monkeys

Joey and Lexi became the goat whisperers. Joey followed those things around everywhere and was so gentle. He was the one who took his leg and held it like that. It was really cute. Lexi took the initiative to get brushes and they gave the goats a nice gentle comb.

Since Kevin only comes home on the weekends, we take every opportunity to have fun and spend time together. We went to the Railroad Park in Scottsdale and met up with Amy (Kevin's sister) and our good friend Cadie. It was a busy but fun day.







They had this cute little train with a conductor and all that took the kids on a 5 minute train ride around the park.


This is our good friend Cadie and her darling little boy Stetson.



Ryan, Amy, and Lexi



Emma loves to go down the slide but still hasn't gotten the courage to go down by herself.


The kids had spring break and it was my birthday so we spent the day at the science museum. It was so dark in there I didn't get great pictures, but it was a lot of fun and very interactive.
