a weekend spent with family

On Saturday I went up to Midway with the kids and my mom. My cousin's husband's family has a house up there. My Aunt Lori and her husband Lamont and their son Trenton, my Aunt Kari, her husband Lance, their son Bruce and his wife Brittany and their daughter Maddy, their Daughter Leann her husband John (it's his family's house) their 4 kiddos Ally, Sara, Ben and Lizzie, their other son Cory and his wife Krysta and their 4 kiddos Tayla, Cayden, Bryson and Maliya were all up there.

Once we got up there the kiddos went out to play in the snow. They had a blast and played out there for a while until the wind picked up.

Then they came inside and we had soup and salad for dinner. Then we sang happy birthday to Krysta and had cake. After cake the kids and Kari played the name game. I think that most of the kids were too young for this and didn't have the attention span for it either so it didn't last long.

Azlyn had fun sharing her toys and playing with her second cousin Maddy. Maddy is exactly 2 months older than Azlyn. It was so cute to watch them play together.

On Sunday we all got together at my Aunt Lori's house. It was the same group as the night before plus my Aunt Trista, her Husband Dave and their 5 boys Kyrus, Steele, Titan, Diesel, and Sylus. My Uncle Jeff and his wife Jennifer and their 3 kids, Tristan, Hope and Chance and my grandma. Jeff and his family are moving to Australia this week so we all got together before they left. They lived in Tennessee before this and tonight was the first time I got to meet their sweet kiddos. We of course had to get a picture of the kiddos. These are a only some of my cousins and second cousins. Then a picture of my grandma with 5 of her 8 kids. Of course we had to get silly pictures of each group as well.

Here are some pics of Azlyn playing with Lizzie. Lizzie is 1 week older than Azlyn. I also had to get a picture of the girls getting a diaper change and jammies on. It was just funny to me to see all the girls laying there. It was also the first time that I actually saw that Azlyn may actually be kinda small for her age. People ask me all the time if she is and her trip to the doctor confirmed it but she didn't seem that small to me until I saw her by these girls.
It was such a fun weekend getting to spend so much time with my family. I feel so lucky to have so much family live pretty close by.
