Cousin Time!

Anna and the girls came up last week to help celebrate my first few days as a stay at home mom. The kids were all too excited to participate in some fun adventures. Including time at Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh. Brian and I did a segway tour a few weeks back during which they said lots of people come to Oakwood Cemetery for picnics and family events. I thought it sounded fun so we tried it out and they were right.

We had movie night for 3 nights in a row, complete with scary Disney movies (what’s up with the scary Mr. Disney?)

Then Saturday, Oma and Opa joined us and we spent the day downtown at the Natural Sciences Museum, a quick trip to City Market for a local arts fair, and some time at Marbles.

Then there was still time for some random fun too! Dress up time in Aunt Cindy’s shoes.

The adults even made some time to start fires with a magnifying glass! Quality fun to round out a really fun week and weekend!!

This was a great way to start out my new career. I’m loving every minute of being with my family, especially my boys. We’re all looking forward to many fun adventures in the coming months!
