we enjoy spending a part of just about every week with my parents and my sister and her family. they live less than seven minutes away. my brother and his wife live in louisville, ky, and they visit often, but it is rare that all of us get to spend four days away together 24/7.
our kids had a blast. they played and played and played. they never seemed to get bored. whether is was playing uno on the deck, picking rasberries, collecting the chicken eggs, or throwing rocks in the pond outside our back door they enjoyed spending every second with their cousins.
our husbands had a blast. uncle steve has a couple of jeeps that the big boys toyed around with for a good portion of the weekend. they were up and down and all around the mountain roads or making their own roads for hours at a time.
the evenings were filled with fun games. mostly rummikub and hand and foot. i can't remember exactly who came out on top. . . but i do know, there were lots of laughs!!
it was a fun weekend. thank you mom and dad for treating us. thank you uncle steve for putting up with us. thank you, Lord, for a family that loves You and encourages us to keep living out Your Story in our lives!!
