Cousin's in town

Jennifer's sister Jill came down with her boys during their spring break to spend some time with us. We had so much fun and were very sad when they left. It was a little hard because Reagan and Walker still had school. I think we entertained them enough during the day that it was okay though. We played at Grandma's on the farm, ate at IN N OUT, went to the mall, played video games, and had a blast hanging out with each other. Come back soon. Playing Guitar Hero. Konner and Reagan.

Picture Time (so make a face)

We tried to take some pictures of the kids out in the fields. I don't think one is great of all three of them. One of them had to be pulling some kind of face in all of the pictures. Reagan is cheesing it a little too much.
Probaby the best of the bunch.
This one would be the best if it weren't for Walker's rabbit ears on Carter.

We had some of Jennifer cousins meet us at their Grandma's for dinner and playing on the farm. The kids had a blast playing on the slip n slide and in the irrigation ditches, then playing capture the flag when it started getting dark. Boy did it bring back childhood memories.

Swimming in April

Jennifer's uncle Richard was nice enough to let us come and invade his swimming pool at the last minute. The kids thought it was the greatest. It was kind of windy that day so it was a little chilly when they got out of the water, but I don't think they minded too much. They stayed in the hot tub most of the time, except a few times of being brave and crazy to jump in the pool. Carter was only brave enough at first to just put his feet in the water. After a bit he got in, until they turned the jets on, then he FREAKED out, and wouldn't get back in the water
Konner. (KON AIR)
Tanner. (TAN MAN)
The pool was freezing the kids said so they stayed in the hot tub. Tanner was brave enough to try the pool. After quite a while Konner and Reagan both tried to get in too. Carter and Reagan.
Carter in his elephant towel. As soon as they turned the jets on in the hot tub, he wouldn't get in. He sat on the side in his towel and watched the kids be crazy.

Sad to say, but Reagan and her friends didn't make the talent show. She took it a lot better than I thought she would. They worked really hard. I am glad that we don't have to sit through an elementry school talent show now though.
