Fun Times With the Cousins

We had some exciting times with the cousins a few weeks ago. They came to hang out while their mom and dad went to Ohio for a residency interview. This was our second morning together. We tried to smoosh 5 kids onto 3 seats for almost every meal because everyone wanted to sit up at the bar ( I guess we are missing Max in this picture.).
I wish I had a picture of Jeff (their dad) doing the same thing with my mom's make-up back in the day. I guess the apples don't fall far from the tree as you can see. I give Kaylee all the credit on this one though. She was the little instigator in this adventure. Not only was there make up all over them and my bathroom but Gage's pooh could be found in many areas as well. In my defense, I thought they were sleeping. It was so quiet and so I didn't suspect any thing. After about an hour I went to check on them in my room and this is what I found.
In case you can't see it well in the first picture, this is Kaylee's art work on my bedroom wall. I was quite impressed with her artistic abilities and use of color in this particular piece that I couldn't help but take a picture. I will admit this was all my fault. I forgot about some non-washable markers I had left out in my room not far from her bed. Oh well, there is always the magic eraser right?

Great posts Rae. I am so glad that you survived having my little monsters over at your house. And lucky that the magic eraser CAN really do magic. The kids had a blast. Now its my turn. Take Neal on a vacation. :)
