A Visit From Jake, Liz and Boys

In September Jake, Liz and the boys came to visit on their way to her family reunion. It was fun to have them here, even though it was a short visit. They also stopped on their way home, so we got to see them twice!

We had fun on the patio with the bubble machine and the slide.

Josh and Charlie are such fun loving little boys. They loved the bubble machine, but when they would get interested in something else, I would turn it off to save the batteries. But as soon as I did, one of them would notice, and run over and turn it back on! Charlie love doing the teeter totter all by himself. We tried to show him how you can do it with two, but he would have none of that!

Charlie was content with the smaller slide................

But Josh prided himself on going down the big, semi scary slide. This slide has been around since their Dad was a kid, and is seriously high. There is no way it would pass the safety standards of today, so Josh's bravery was justified. 

They even managed to fit in a Ranger ride.

It was so fun to have them here for a couple of days. These last pictures are on Sunday morning and the boys are in their pajamas. I wish you could see the big holes in Josh's superman pj's! He loves those pajamas so much, and won't part with them, though the knees are shot.

We sure do love these two cute little boys. They light up our lives.
