MN Fun

While our house was inundated with turkeys, err I mean turkey hunters this weekend, the four of us girls made our first trip to MN without Kyle.  The girls got right down to business with Grandma whipping up a delicious dessert (I LOVE how Piper is standing on her chair, and Hadley has just plain old climbed right up onto the counter to get to the frosting!)

Grandpa read us his new favorite children's book (This Is Not My Hat, by Jon Klassen), and I'm not sure who enjoyed themselves more!

As soon as Kenzie arrived, it was Hadley's turn to read to us. She chose her favorite children's book (Any Piggie & Elephant by Mo Willems).

The littlest cousin buddies were happy to see each other once again, and were tickled to sit up and look at one another this time!  Cylas 'tickled' Bryndel's feet a few times, and she pinched his ear a little later when they were lying next to each other!

Nothing better than Grandma love.

When the other Graham cousins arrived Saturday afternoon, we all went outside to enjoy the beautiful attempt at spring weather.  That's Hadley launching off the dock into the snow.

Followed by Piper, who has never been brave enough to jump by herself!

















Little time out from all the jumping (and puddle sloshing!) for a quick smile ~ Piper, Brooklyn, Hadley, & Savannah.

Both Asher & Bryndel got some Grandpa love.














Piper & Grandpa were busy tossing snowballs into the lake, but took a quick time out to smile for me.

And at the end of the evening, the older 5 disappeared upstairs for quite a while... making up some 'great' game where they kicked their heels on the wall while upside down (likely leaving just a few heel prints behind!).
