Cousins Visit

We had a surprise visit from cousins Vance & Madison, Aunt Ali (Jake's sister) and Uncle Darren. It was so unexpected, which made it even more fun! We went swimming and had dinner at our house. The kids loved having their cousins over. Gabe was nuts about Vance, and Ari couldn't keep fawning over baby Madison the whole evening.

Look how he swims around like a fish in those floaties. It would be nice if Gabe would learn a thing or two from him!} {Pretty ladies: Ali & Madison}{Ari loves to splash around, but the water was a little too cold for her to go for it} {Gabe just chillin' on the step, terrified of deep water}
