Cousin party

Our spring break weekend coincided with my brother Tom's familie's break, so they came down to hang out. Their kids and ours are really close in age so they all love to get together. And since we live in separate states, it's sometimes hard to coordinate. One year for Christmas, Rachel actually asked Santa for more time with her cousins.

We had a great time, and the festivities included a marathon Ikea trip, his-and-hers movie night, pizza, slumber parties, and plenty of screaming girls in the backyard (that should improve my neighbor's quality of life). But Tom did comment that he thought the books on our coffee table were too morbid. What? Anyway, here are some highlights.

They are all so cute! I had a blast babysitting them while you went out, I'm glad I got the chance to meet them. Even Jason was fun to play with through some crying! And I do have to agree that Erin looks alot like you, I hadn't noticed that until I saw the pic. What fun kids! -Alyssa.
