some went shopping, some went sleeping, and some went playing. i enjoyed a few moments with my niece evy, her monkey "tags" and my camera.
once we all got rounded up again, we headed out for chinese dinner...
topping it off with some del-i-cious ice cream cones, ahuh
time for bed, right? oh no, we still have a surprise in store for you kiddos!
head back home, get kids in pj's, set up choo-choo train seats, stoke the fire...and presenting...
the 1st annual cousins' polar express
first grandpa, uh i mean "the conductor" handed out everyone's tickets and made sure they got punched to ride the express!
now we're all aboard! time to start the ride!
during the movie where the waiters come aboard and perform a dance while pouring hot cocoa, all of the adults ran downstairs with hot chocolate for each of the kids and fresh hot popcorn made by uncle tim! the kids got a kick out of us singing and dancing away!
this was good, cozy snuggle time!
(and since i'm behind on the blog and he hasn't been introduced here yet- this is uncle spencer! he and chelsae got married in july, stay tuned for that post!!!)
grandpa did a great job as the conductor, and even put up with that silly mustache that kept falling off! he also had a very pretty little mrs.!
this was a fun treat for the kids and a great memory that we will continue each year with the cousins!
(all auntie nickie's idea, want to give credit where credit is due!)
