My niece and I have little ones very similar in age and they came up to visit us for a few days.  It was the best!!  Our kids are at the age now where they entertain themselves AND they clean up after themselves.

Well.  Sometimes they clean up after themselves.

Our two smallest LOVE each other.  Ella and Caroline are such sweeties together and I love watching them play.  They just giggle and giggle and giggle.  They are an actual hoot.  They also never fight.

NEVER do they fight.

It’s the sweetest little relationship you ever did see.

When The Cousins came to visit, we ordered pizza, made brownies, stayed up way too late, camped out downstairs (who am I kidding?  I don’t camp ANYWHERE), lit up some sparklers, went to horse riding lessons, explored the barn, played Xbox, danced and gobbled up some Chick-fil-A.  In the middle and all around that stuff….we played and played.  The moms talked and talked.

It was a great time and I know we all enjoyed those little moments together.  Family is wonderful, but family that is THIS rad and connected is even more wonderful.
