Christmas in January

Tim’s brother’s family got sick with the flu the day after Christmas and weren’t able to make it down until last weekend.  The weather was amazing for January in Virginia, a beautiful 70 degree day.  We had fun shooting off the stomp rocket in Tim’s parent’s front yard before having lunch and opening presents.

The two oldest cousins having fun with the stomp rocket:

Sammy got that one way up there (can you find it?):

We tried to get a picture of all three cousins.. but the sun was bright and they didn’t want to cooperate.. still turned out kinda cute:

I gave Sammy some of my old sun glasses out of the car in hopes of getting a picture of them on the swing:

Awe - what great pics! I love that you have family so close to visit. That is one thing I miss just a little bit where we are now.

Awww what a great cousin Sammy is...I have fond memories of playing with my cousins. It was such great warm weather wasn't it? Now it's cold and rainy yucky!

We LOVE Spot It, it's a great game. 70 degrees, I'm jealous. We live in Colorado and it's been in the single digits. I'd take any weather warmer than that. Looks like y'all had quite the Christmases this year, lots of family fun.
