Jared stayed with us Monday and Tuesday and then drove up with us on Wednesday. That was a fun kick-off to cousin time. Peter of course didn't sleep a wink for the 6.5 hour drive. I'm a little curious to see what our 24 hour drive next month will be like with him...
On a gondola. Yesterday Benjamin asked me, "when can we go on a gondola again?" Peter didn't want to be held or sit down while we were on it. He just wanted to run around it despite the jerking of taking off and landing at the different stops.
For the kids' talent show Benjamin played a few songs on his cello. He sat down to play even more but I stopped him because he would've gone on forever! He loves to have an audience. We're past the hard "3 year old stage" of lessons and practice. He now complies with almost everything Miss Lisa and I ask of him. It's so much nicer than fighting him on every single thing.
Peter's favorite thing was to walk around and explore unrestrained. We went into the city to walk around (imagine 19 kids walking around a tourist town all together!) so I mainly let him go where he wanted and followed.
Some cool art-exhibit playground equipment were up. I think the men had as much fun as the kids did.
19 kids 9 and under in 1 cabin. Here are a few of them.
Lamoni found a fun hike. Benjamin hiked the entire thing himself! I brought an extra carrier just in case. Peer pressure is a beautiful thing. It was 3 miles! This is the kid who, after taking one step out of our hotel room last month froze and asked me to go get the double stroller from the car so he wouldn't have to walk downstairs to get breakfast. Needless to say he ended up walking.
Timberline!
This is where we took family pictures. It was idyllic.
More art in Breckenridge.
S'mores and fun in the backyard.
