Cousins Visit

The week before Christmas Aunt Amber, Noah and Landin came to our house and we had a blast. For almost a whole week the kids basically played outside all day every day laughing and jumping on the trampoline. It was so much fun! (We missed you Uncle Dennis!)












We took a trip to the zoo-



And rode the zoo train-









Amber had gotten these precious hat/mitten combos from New York-





Making Star Wars bases with Kapla blocks-



Noah got to go with Marky to his scout meeting and participate in the opening cermony-







He also got to go to Marky's basketball game- just Marc, Noah and Marky- guys time! (And yes Marc is still the youngest and tallest on his team- he's on a 2nd/3rd grade team and he is the youngest 2nd grader)







And Amber made the most amazing star wars snow flakes out of paper- the boys LOVED them!





The boys got to watch Episode II of Star Wars in the guest room (with Grrr and Woof- there are some scary parts)-



Using the force on us-



Meanwhile the girls got to watch Strawberry Shortcake for their movie night-



Hugging goodbye- Marky picked up both Noah and Landin as he hugged them-



A wonderful, wonderful visit! Please pray for Noah- he had a bad MRI in December and a bad spinal tap this week that showed cancer cells in his spinal fluid. That's a first and it's very scary. But wow- how amazing he is doing in spite of it all and what a great visit we had.
