Jack and Ben have had a walloping good time with their cousins from LA visiting. Jack has been desperately trying to keep up with the non napping, late bed time (jet lagged) sleeping cousins. Poor thing will be dead tired when it’s all over, but I can’t blame him one bit – it’s non stop fun in our house right now!

The Cousins

We managed to pack in the Butterfly Museum, the Museum of Science and Industry, the water park at Adam’s Park, a picnic, a sail boat tour, Ben’s birthday party, and for me the best part was one glorious evening adult evening at Perennial Virant while the kids terrorized the babysitter.

I think the best part for the kids was that, through some loophole in math laws, more parents around somehow meant less parental supervision.

There is nothing more important or greater than family and this visit made me so happy to be together, yet so sad that we live so far away from each other.
