William's visit part 6 - more cousin time

Friday - oh yes, a busy day. Sarah had to work from 1 pm to 9:30 pm. We had volunteered to babysit until Wade would come home. But there was still the morning!

Sarah went early to ACAC where she exercised (with the children being supervised in the children's room) and we met them there to swim. It was a very nice day and it was fun. 4 adults for 4 children is a good ratio anyway.







After a while Helen and Sarah took William and Caleb to the other pool where they could do some jumping in. William learned to climb out of the deep end.

James and I kept company with Colin and Owen while they had a snack.



Then to Sarah's house so she could get ready for work. The twins were very tired and we had difficulty for them to eat their lunch. Colin wanted 'dino' to eat his.


When they were finally in bed we relaxed in the screened porch but ... oh no ... there came a thunderstorm. Actually, we decided it is quite cozy there. But when the thunder came close we decided to go inside. We could hear the twins talk forever. But they were so tired?



James tried his luck for Caleb to take a nap. That didn't work either.





Colin and Owen slept somewhat so they definitely felt better. And we could be out on the screened porch again. But it was way too wet outside. 





Later we tried a little separation of the older and younger boys.  Lots of toys in the basement too.
Downstairs.



Upstairs.




After 5 pm ... story time. Colin is reading to Helen.






It was a wild and crazy full day. But how often does William see his cousins and Helen see her nephews? And yeah, nobody got hurt.
