'Cuz of Cousins

Kent and Leisy and their cute kiddos came to visit us Utahns the end of June and over the 4th of July.  Seeing them and being with them was THE best!!!  I didn't take ANY pictures except for one night that we had their kiddos.  I'm really regretting that right now!  We sure enjoy those boys - and we love having Kent and Leisy in town!

Grandma and Grandpa have a heavenly back yard, and we had a fun, kid-filled evening of playing in the water, playing ball and catch, bbq-ing, roasting marshmellows, wrestling, and just hanging out.

Here are Hanna and Krystal ... happy as can be to spend every moment together.  And here is gramps and his boys (except Ethan) - he's a good gramps!

Here is Krystal and Zebby. Krystal wishes she could see Zeb EVERY day!  And Aaron and Ike were good buddies!

Here's Ike showing us YET AGAIN the cool digger in the lot behind grampa's.  Oh - we just loved his pointing!  Couldn't get enough of it!    And I just looooved this picture of Krystal having the time of her life taking Megan down this mini slide ... despite Megan's look of worry and horror!  :)  So cute.

Roasting marshmallows!  Mmmmmmmmmm.  Who knows what Ike is doing?  Silly kid.

Just playing and playing and playing.  I, personally, get a kick out of Aaron and Ike sword fighting with the badminton rackets.

M and Meggie and Krystal = adorableness flowing over!

Here is Zeb giving me a "2-thumbs-up" for the s'more he made.  :)  And Ike doing some continued pointing out of the digger in the lot behind grampa's house.  He made sure we all knew that it was there ... about every 10 seconds!  hahaha!  So funny!

Ike and Aaron playing ball:

Ikey was grandpa's little buddy every time he was over.  He followed him around ... sat on his lap -- it was so cute!  Here is Ike stickin' to gramps like glue while he did some raking.  :)

Anyway - we had such a great time with them here.  I wish we could get together more often ... but 2000 miles seems to make it more difficult.  :(  We love you, Kent and Leisy - Zebby and Ike!  Counting the days 'til we see you again!
