Cousins

We had a great weekend with our Mississippi cousins again!  It was their spring break, so they drove out on Thursday and stayed until Saturday night.  They have 4 boys with tons of energy.  Hayden just loved playing with her cousins.  This is the first time she has ever had cousins come to her house.  Every time she woke up she was so excited to go round everyone up.  One morning she waited by the door until Garrett woke up and then came downstairs with him.  She would not budge until he was with her! 

Friday we took them to Champion Kids, the open gymnastics place. They all had a great time jumping on trampolines, going to down slides, but I believe their most favorite activity was jumping with a rope into the foam pit!  That night my sister-in-law Heidi and I went to IKEA.  It's only the second time I've been so it was fun to have a night out just the girls. 

Saturday we headed out to the zoo and it was a really hot day, I think it got to the upper 80s.  But before we got to the zoo we went to The Varsity which is kind of a famous restaurant in Atlanta.  If you ask me, the food was way to greasy and I probably wouldn't chose to go again!  But the story is that a student was told by a professor at Georgia Tech that he was so dumb he couldn't even run a hot dog stand, and so he dropped out of school and opened his own restaurant which is now famous.  Quincy has a true love for the zoo and was so excited to see each and every animal.  Just like our last trip to the zoo, Hayden cried every time we left an animal for about the first 10 minutes until she caught on that each time we left an animal we would get to see another. 

We had a great, fun packed weekend and we are just so glad to have some family to keep us company out here in the south.

Cooper (in the red) made me laugh the whole weekend!
