Our Big Vacation, Part 1 - Cooper

We took a little trip up to Redding to visit with my cousin Monika and her family who were visiting from WA. It was 112 degrees while we were up there!!! HOT! We spent most of the time in the house or at the poor nearby. Cooper and Shane got to hang out last Thanksgiving, but boy how they have changed since then! We had a great time hanging out with them and watching the boys interact. Here they are playing with Whitney the turtle.

They liked to do all the same things...we called this bucket head.

Good morning!

Shane saw this cool "motorcycle" out in front of the pool and had to sit on it...so did Cooper!

Checking out the patio at the pool

The Grandmas and their boys

We tried to get the boys in the pool,
but neither one of them lasted very long.

Daddy and Shane lounging at the pool

Niki got a TON of toys for the boys to play with while there were visiting. Only a Grandma would get this much stuff for only a few days of vacation. They loved it :)







There is lots of wildlife to explore around Niki's house. The boys always get so excited when the deer show up!

Of course they both had to sit on this little deer.
Shane was confused I think!

Playing with Whitney one last time before we left!
