Final Trip to Cousin Robin's House

On Wednesday, July 23rd, I took the kids and headed over to Cousin Robin's house for one last visit with each other. Unfortunately, Aaron was at another church camp and we missed seeing him (even though we did track down his camp in the middle of nowhere but he was busy and we needed to go home for bedtime.) The girls had a great time playing together; Pepper had been planning their girls night for days.






Breakfast for dinner is always a big hit.
On Thursday we spent the afternoon at their club pool. 
Someone had a hard time coping with a lack of nap. She did not enjoy being forced into her floatie. 
This girl has no fear and loved jumping off the diving boards.
Here's a video of Pepper taking the big jump:


Love this crew.



It took a lot of coaxing and bribing and pep-talking to finally convince Morgan to jump off the diving board. I knew he wanted to but he was afraid. I didn't want him to regret not jumping. I also knew that once he did it he would love it and get over his fear quickly.
I was so proud of my big boy for conquering his fears and taking the big plunge. Of course after the first few jumps he was totally fine and had a great time, just as I figured.
Here's a video of Morgan jumping:



So hard to say good-bye to those we love!

Even though we have only known each other for a few short years, we love the Valdez family and will miss them more than they can know!
