Our Week With Cousin Chase

My dear hubby has been at General Assembly all week in TN

. . .so I've been holding the fort down.

I realized last night, that we spent a little bit of each day with cousin Chasey!!

The week was very full and very busy, but hey,

the kids had fun and boy did they sleep good each night!

Tuesday we headed to La Jolly Shores for beach day. . .

A number of friends joined us including Chasey.

It was a bit cool and overcast (June gloom hanging on),

but that didn't keep the kids out of the water!!!

Wednesday we had some play dates planned for the older kids,

and then that afternoon we headed over to Chasey's.

The kids played and swam with her and Aunt Heidi

while I found some treasures at my favorite thrift store!

That evening we grilled out and then all had a sleep-over!!! FUN TIMES!

Thursday we said good-bye to Chasey, and headed to the pool again-

this time to say good-bye to some sweet military friends!

More play dates in the afternoon followed. . .

Chasey joined us Friday morning for a couple of hours

and then we all headed to lunch together with a dear friend.

All of these pics were taken after lunch. . . sweet times!

The kids have sooo much fun with their cousin.

I don't feel like I have to do much when she is here with us.

I have so many little built-in baby-sitters who absolutely LOVE to love on her!

As the kids were dancing in the girls' bedroom Abby came out and said,

"Chasey is going to be just like me. . . She's wild and she likes music!"

I guess we'll just have to wait and see, won't we?
