Eliza and Rorie
Last week Aunt Meghan and our cousin Rorie came to visit us. We had a lot of fun with them. We played a lot, went to the park, to a museum, a farm, and a couple historic sites.
Rorie playing on the deck with the kids.

Rorie was very attached to her stroller. She kept a very close eye on it.

At the Park
We learned that Rorie is a little monkey. She climbs on everything and is very good at it.
Eliza had something in her mouth most of the time.

These are some cute kids!
Eliza loves the slide and I love her hair when she gets to the bottom.
Strawberry Farm
This picture is for Grandpa Shirley...there are cows here!
Rorie, Bradley and Daniel heading to the fields to pick fresh strawberries.
Rorie was an excellent picker. She is quick and finds really red ones!
Bradley is...well...cute!
He is a great strawberry picker as well.
Daniel is a very serious picker even though he doesn't look too serious in this picture.
Eliza just picks everything, red, green, greenish-red, smooshy, moldy, you name it and she will pick it!
Eliza helped supervise dad as he picked. She may or may not have walked across the box we were picking into. We did have some great strawberry milk shakes when we got home!
Thanks Eliza!!
Water Fight
We picked up a few water guns and tried them out before Aunt Meghan and Rorie had to leave.
No one was safe with these boys around.
Rorie held her own against the boys. She is a pretty good shot.
The boys kept shooting everyone even if they didn't have a water gun, so I had to dip up enough guns for Meghan and I to defend ourselves. Here they come again!
"We got them!"
Here they come again!
Watch out Meghan here they come.
We really enjoyed having Meghan are Rorie visit. We can't wait to see you again in little over a week!
