Emmett's muscle suit
the never fail video games are always crowd pleasers... especially with this crowd.
Memorable moments:
Emmett decided the "big girls" were cute and fun- needed Kara and Kiersten to tuck him in at night.
The battle of the Jelly Fish- Cousins digging holes and scooping the jelly fish in them- "so no one will get stung" while Jackson, our naturalist runs around defending them- "What did they ever do to YOU?"
The night of the sand crab. (AKA the I'm a really bad aunt story) Jackson caught a crab he aptly named GARGANTUAN- and wanted to take a picture. I said to come into the house so I could take a picture while he held the bucket. CJ was having a fit- It's going to get out! he cried. Now now CJ I say in a very calm and patronizing voice. He won't get out- we'll take the picture real quick and put him back outsiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh... Gargantuan springs out of the bucket, along with at least 2 but we're not sure if there are any other crabs with them and they head for the couch CJ is sitting on. I grab the blanket that CJ has on him- just to make sure the crab isn't making it's way up the couch. Imagine this with crazy screaming and running around. Parents dash in because they think some one has been seriously injured... it sure sounded like it. Happily no people or crabs were injured in the making of this memory. And I am sure some day CJ will forgive his bad aunt.
The Tenney 10k- which ended up being more like the run out, walk back 1/2 10k-Brenda could have done it- I majorly wimped out- ok next time I am going to be in shape and ready for the full monte.

Your vaca pics look perfect--everything a beach getaway should be. Sand, shores, and lots of good memories (a la crab). ;o)
Ahh looks like soo much fun and that crap story will last a lifetime :)
We miss you guys so much! My kiddos keep asking when the reunion is with Andrew and Lex (apparently her name has officially been shortened). Love to see the pictures of your wonderful family! Keep 'em coming!
