More fun with Grandma and Grandpa

We were lucky enough this month to get to spend lots of time with our Tennessee grandparents and Aunts and Uncles too. They came to visit and we spent a good week and a half with them. Near the end of the week we all headed down to Ceder City for Grandpa's Band performance. Before hand we all met at the park for a little get together and to just play. Aunt Kathy is referred to as the Pied Piper of children. The kids just flock to her, and she loves it. These 2 spent a good portion of our time at the park just eating ice out of the cooler. It was SO hot.The bigger girls all taught the little girls how to play red light, green light. It is now a favorite game around here.

Grandma bought us a few fun new toys. One of the favorites is our new sprinkler. Princess E thinks it is specifically used to put her head under. I am just happy that she is finally actually playing in the water, instead of wanting to just water all of the plants.

Aunt Kathy introduced them to "airplane". They both thought it was the greatest thing ever.
Every time we are together with the Cooley's we play games. Some of our favorites are, Universal, Settlers of Catan, anything on the x box, and Mexican train. Here we are gathered in one of our late night game playing sessions.

Mom has her own mixing up the tiles method. It is pretty funny to watch actually.
Uncle Jared gets kinda kookie late at night. He says lots of funny one liners. His tiles all fell over shortly after this picture was taken and he said, "whoa there boys, get back here." It was probably funnier just because it was late and we were all a little loopy.
