day 10 blog 12 cousins visit

ok i feel like i should just post this first photo of the four cousins (ayva, will be 4 in oct, sea, just turned 4 in july, skye 6 1/2 and story 18 months)...they are holding two puppies...one got cut out of the photo but i didn't want to miss story's smile... as this photo alone pretty much summarizes how much they adore one another and how much fun sea and story had when they visited last week...but of course i took many more photos so instead of writing a long narrative i'll just include captions to explain each photo below:
dessert with skye and ayva...love how ayva keeps licking her cone throughout the shot...
"sleep over"...sea has been talking about this idea for a long time and wanted to sleep with the cousins but after they fell asleep she was still lying between them wide awake so she ended up back in our bed...
sea has a little game she likes to play with daddy called "hugging him so tightly that his tongue pops out"...so she was showing the cousins and daddy made the funny sound bobbing his head all around...
this photo is dark but i like how it shows the silhouette of story, skye and the puppy's faces...
skye really had her hands full trying to help story down slides...he just wanted to go by himself...
story loves water so much he has to play with drinking fountains...i really put this shot in to show you how bright red skye's hair is...i love it...
it was really hard for the cousins to say goodbye to each other...here sea is hugging skye while skye is crying...sea is saying "it's ok, skye, you don't have to cry; we'll see each other again soon"
one final reflective moment and hug farewell...also to show their matching braids...

thanks girls...we look forward to seeing you again soon...
