We had a big family visit the last week of June. Everyone came and it was so fun! We did trips to the beach, Boston, and the mountains- and just hung out. It was great to see everyone. I can't wait until the next trip!
My niece Jaden
My Aunt Sue, niece Macenzie, and my mom
Attempting model poses...hilarious!
More model faces!
Alexa was very cranky while everyone was here, but she fell asleep with my niece Edwina
Arilyn playing with Camille
Alexa being happy for a minute with my cousin Tammy
Shawn getting ready to cook
Aunt Sue being silly with the kids
Owen ready to get Aunt Sue
More silliness
The kids helping Aunt Sue make a grocery list- popcorn, ice cream and lollipops!
Owen talking to Great Grandma
My Grandma was resting on her bed. I wanted to go outside and take some pictures of the kids in the paddle boat, so I laid Alexa down with her. It was so cute! Alexa was just looking at her as she was talking. A great moment!
My niece Melinda in the kayak
Owen getting ready for the paddle boat.
Shawn sporting the Huck Finn look.
Addison getting ready to go in the paddle boat.
Aunt Sue went in the kayak with Benita. I thought she looked pretty 'outdoorsy' here!
The kiddos ready to go in the paddle boat with Shawn and Uncle Mike. This was as far as Owen made it. As soon as they started pushing the boat into the water he started to cry and didn't want to go. Which was ok with me because it was making me a little nervous!
Aunt Sue and Benita
Right about the time Owen started freaking out
The girls had a good time. Arilyn was really nervous at first, but then loved it.
Family dinner
It was Benita's birthday while everyone was here- Happy Birthday Benita!!
My sister in law Linda and Camille

Another cute picture of Camille

I bought a bunch of t-shirts for all the kids to tye dye while they were here- this is Benita doing hers
Watching a tv show about tornados- Arilyn was mesmerized

Isaiah looking cute
Some of the group went to Mt Washington, the highest point in NH. They couldn't get all the way to the top however because of storms.
The Mt Washington group- Edwina, Melinda, Linda, Mike, Aunt Sue, Benita and Alyssa
I thought it was funny that Aunt Sue decided to go to Mt Washington. The temperature is always freezing the higher up the mountain you go- she had been complaining the whole time that it was cold at my house- she looks freezing here!
Here's the gang in the tye dye shirts
I made one for Alexa, too and Shawn made his own
Owen was pretty shy around everyone, but he liked playing with Edwina
Aunt Sue trying to get Alexa to stop crying. I know it looks uncomfortable, but Alexa loves to be held that way!
My brother Mike playing baseball with Owen
Benita watching
Owen going crazy with the bat
Everyone hanging out watching the kids
Isaiah riding Addison's big wheel
Isaiah making his tye dye shirt
The whole gang! Such a fun trip!! Thanks to everyone for coming- can't wait for next time!!
