A nice family BBQ with all the cousins

Our first stop on vacation was to meet up with Mike's side of the family. We had a great BBQ at Aunt Edie and Uncle Billy's house and did some major catching up with the family--and all the kids! All the cousins played so well together and especially enjoyed the pool--all of them were in at one time too!


Jillian just LOVED all of Aunt Edie's toys:

Here are Charlie and Jake (they are only 6 weeks younger than Jillian):

Here are Elias (16m) and Jake (22m) plotting an attack on the ice cubes:



Jillian swoops in to get her share of ice cubes:

Jake is desperately trying to take his socks off so he can jump in:

Plenty of room for the adults to squeeze in:

Jillian's favorite part of the day:

Felicity was there too--with her adorable puppy Bailey:

Aunt Shirma arrived just in time to feed the birds:

A little time out to make some calls:

Thanks to GG--the kids actually stayed seated for a picture!
