Cousins

My sister, Elaine, and her daughter, Sarah Beth, came to visit us this weekend.  What fun we had.  It was so neat to watch the kids play together.  Sarah Beth is 9 months old.  She was in for some excitement with Jack and Caroline.  I think Elaine was worried about what she might learn from them.  It was so sweet to watch them interact.  I think there's going to be some trouble in the air as the girls get older and play together more.  Also exciting, Elaine and I got to do some sewing.  We knew we were getting older when we were excited to go to a consignment sale one night of the weekend and start a sewing project the next.  She helped me sew the black dress and then I was able to make the other one today.  Can't wait for some warmer weather!

a sewing project is never complete without a trip to Hobby Lobby

She was so proud to wear it!

Showing them the Levee.  Who would have thought there would be a two hour wait for the aquarium...even with a season pass!

A photo shoot with these 3 was more challenging than we thought!

Jack really liked SB

She's getting so big.  

Our fun company for the weekend!

Love Jack's half smile...like "come on mom!"

Here comes the real Jack

I guess this is why his teacher mentioned "good sense of humor" on his last report card.   I can only image the show he puts on for his friends!

Caroline not sure about SB checking out her buttons.

We had a great time and made some wonderful memories.  Thanks for the great trip girls.  We can't wait to see you again.  Jack's already asking where you went!
