This week we packed up and headed to my sisters house to partake in our annual cousin camp. Our sister-in-law Heidi joined us and we had nine cousins ready to create and play. My sis, Marisa located crafts for us to do and graciously gathered all the supplies we would need to do them.
We made Tie-dye shirts, snakes out of ties, and painted with homemade puffy paint. We ate wonderful meals, played outside, and even headed to a water park. My kids loved it! It was their first experience with all that gushing water. I took oodles of pictures with my point-and-shoot camera and now can’t get them loaded on my computer. UGH! Not sure what the problem is there. Oh well, maybe I can share them with you at a later date.
Anyway, Cousin Camp 2010 was a success!
Look at all that color and enthusiasm! This was taken the last 30 minutes of our Cousin Camp adventure and the littles were beginning to go into meltdown mode, enthusiasm was at a minimum. There were a few tears, a bit of grumpiness and us mommas needed a nap, but…
We can’t wait till next year!
How much fun is that? I'll have to start calling my sister's visits Cousin Camp. You guys have one more than us, though. We only have 8 kids ;)
ReplyDeleteWe had such a great time! I think we pulled off a lot of fun things in a small amount of time! I'm so glad you could come!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! Do you live near each other or did you have to drive a long way and spend the nights away from home? Sounds like a great idea!
