Goodbyes are hard!

Cody and Jonah rode scooters up to Wendy's and they wanted to do it again the next day.  Wyatt wanted to go and was so excited when they invited him along.  They sure made him feel like a million bucks!  Cody and Jonah also rode to Sonic one day.  They were so hot and tired when they got home.
Caitlyn, Elena and Alexys stayed over at Amarie's to celebrate her birthday.  
They went swimming and had the best time together.
Matt drove up to pick up Lori and the kids.  He got here late Friday night and stayed here for two nights.  We loved having him here.  On Saturday evening we had everyone over for dessert so everyone could see Matt.  Kyle and Paige came too.
Wyatt, Rockwell and Cody had fun outside for a while.  Jonah was at a Ropes Course for Youth Conference so he missed most of the night.
Ataiya was at work that night, so she couldn't come.  Caitlyn came home from youth conference early and loved spending that time with her cousins. 
My kids have been in cousins heaven.  We have loved spending so much time with family.
Matt brought Maizy down with him.  Jackson and Maizy did really well together. 
We took a few cousin pictures before everyone left.  For a few weeks Caitlyn, Amarie, Cody and Dante are all 15-years-old.
Mel and Amarie stayed late so the kids could play ghost in the graveyard. 
Hallee was so excited that she got to stay up late and play.
I will never get tired of seeing my kids have fun with their cousins.
They are all such good kids.
Jonah has loved spending so much time with Cody this past month.  They always have a great time together.  When they aren't together they are on the phone playing video games together.
Caitlyn loved having Elena stay with us.  They are so similar and have so many similar interests. 
The girls were sad to say goodbye. 
We stayed up and visited with Matt and Lori for a little while that night.  We were all exhausted, but we didn't want to go to bed because that meant we had to say goodbye.  We loved having them here.  We have been with them for a month minus a few days here and there.  This week has seemed pretty lonely with them gone.  I'm so glad we had so much time with them this summer.
