RollinsFest 09

We just got back from our first visit to the Rollins' since they moved to FL. The boys had THE best time with their cousins. There was always a line of children marching around the house, arrows narrowly missing one's face, giggling from inside sleeping bags at night, and a seemingly unending chorus of "NO LIAM!" As Becca said, "Philip, this is why I'm insane." It all makes me laugh, and then makes me tired.

Our 11-hour drive looked something like this:



(here be the Salty Tot, which took Mama 30 minutes of concentrated effort to assemble, and which occupied James for about 5):



Lunch at the park:


Trip to the zoo included playing in fountains (Liam kept putting his face in them, and no, I don't think he got kicked in the head here):





Weapons in undies for most of the week:



Watching the rain roll in:




Spluttering or talking or both:





Look out ladies:

Can I just say that I'm glad you're the mother....but, I love that you all got together and that you have so much life yet to share with siblings and cousins.
