Cousin's Backyard Campout

My amazing sis-in-law organized a backyard camp out at her house with the cousins. Not all of the cousins were able to stay for the camp out, but everyone was able to be there for a fun BBQ Thursday evening.

The little girls were having fun dead-heading the daisies and dramatically falling backwards when they popped off a flower.

When the kids were getting ready for bed the girls got in the boys sleeping bags on the trampoline and Alex and Connor jumped them around in the sleeping bags. They thought it was so fun.

The boys slept on the trampoline, and the girls slept in the tent on mattresses.The only problem was that the girls wanted to stay up all night and didn't even go to sleep until after 11:00.

First thing in the morning Gabby was up even though she did NOT get enough sleep. Jess made us an amazing pancake breakfast and then the kids played. The boys could be found playing the computer and the Wii, and the girls were off playing school and dress-up.
