Cousin time

We have been enjoying the Bonus family visiting us here in Curlew.  We have done a lot of things and have plans for more!  Here are a few things we've done so far:

Hiking 

Canoeing - we took turns and everyone loved it!  Also, Josh, Adam and Nathan canoed the river, from the bridge to Curlew - they had a blast!

Lots of reading!  We are enjoying Kim reading the Beverly Cleary Ramona series to the kiddos.  

Someone is always using technology.  :) 

Made our first trip to Canada! 

Kim teaching Vivian to wait her turn in Backgammon.  

Vivian wanted to try Thelma on.  

These two baby fawns and their momma have been hanging around our house.  

We got out the train set and that has been fun. 

Adam and Nathan made a boat and put it in the river at the bridge, then we waited for it to float by our house.  Adam put his number on it so if someone ever finds the boat it will be fun to see how far it goes! 

Playing see-saw on the horse. 

 We painted rocks and made a Rock Garden.

LOTS of pool time!  The four bigger kids (Emily, Nathan, Abby and Shelby) have been playing in the pool and teaching Shelby how to go under water.  She does so well with them!  :)

Lots of fun!  Happy Independence Day!
