Cousins, Cousins, Everywhere

My brother, Todd, and his son, Nick, flew into Vegas from Texas for their Spring Break. They came to pick up our 1999 Oldsmobile Alero that they purchased from us for Nick since he's now a driver! I'm glad I got to keep the car in the family, old cars have such sentimental value. It's funny because I drove Todd's old car all through high school and now his son is driving my old car all through high school. They could only stay one night because it's a LONG drive back to Dallas, but we had some fun while they were here.


These ones aren't of cousins, just some super cute girly friends at a park playgroup.



Tim's sister, Amy, and her kids came down and spent the week for their Spring Break. I kept forgetting to bring my camera, but it was so much fun to have them here. London even had a sleepover at Aunt Kate's with all the cousins. She was more than anxious to get Tim and I out of the house so she could play and sleep with Darby all night by herself. It's been crazy to go from a super clingy child to Little Miss Independent lately, but I must say it's nice too. Especially with another one on the way. We really weren't expecting her to stay the night, so we kind of just went home and looked at each other like, "What do we do without her?" It was funny.

Art Class and Lions







I started realizing that London was getting VERY bored just hanging with me all day, so I enrolled her in a few classes. These are pictures of her Messy Art class. It's been a lot of fun. This particular project was a water color butterfly, but they have done projects with pudding, shaving cream, paint on marbles rolled around, paint on spaghetti splashed around, and then today they made slime and play dough. The other pictures are of her and Tim at the MGM grand. She kept calling the lion Aslan. When Tim and his dad took her down to the strip, some people, foreigners obviously, asked if they could have a picture with her because they had never seen a white little girl with blond hair and blue eyes before. I thought that was pretty funny.
