Como Town and Cousins

On Monday night Tim Hennum's dad, Tom, was playing at Como Park with the Minnesota Mandolin Orchestra so we went to watch him. We got there early, hoping to take the kids to the zoo....only to find out the zoo closed at 6 and we got there at 6:30. :( I felt bad because the kids were all excited. Thankfully Como Town was open, so Bishop got to ride on a train. He was very serious on the ride and was such a big boy!

After Bishop's train ride we walked over to the bandshell where the concert was going on. We met up with Liana, Siena, Maia and their cousins....and their CUTE dog, Jackson. The kids had a blast running around.

Luke was gone Tues-Thurs this week, so on Wednesday night we visited the Bormann's. It is so fun to watch the cousins together. They have so much fun together and they're all growing up so much!

Bishop decided to take a little ride in Madelyn's car.....and then all 3 of the "big kids" took turns going down the hill. You could tell Madelyn wasn't quite sure what to think about it, but since her cousins were having so much fun with it....she decided to enjoy it too! She was so brave and I could tell she was out of her comfort zone a little, but she did awesome and it was fun to see her enjoy it!

She looks a little sassy here, don't you think?

Wheeeeeeeeee!!!!

I was trying to get video of all the kids.....but I guess I didn't get a video of Madelyn going down. Sorry honey!!

Nora would push her push toy down the driveway.....she'd fall down, but not let go of the car and she'd be laid out on the driveway. It looked painful, but she wasn't going to let go and let one of the big kids take her car from her! :)

This kid has no fear! Watch out-here he comes!

When it was time to go in Madelyn wanted to take a bath "with a lot of kids"...so we went in to take a bath. The last time she wasn't so crazy about sharing her bath with 2 others...but she was all smiles this time.

Oh wait, is that Shelly!??!

The last thing Madelyn wanted to do was play Ring Around The Rosy.....last time we were there they played with Ryan on their bed....this time Ryan was told he wasn't included!

Ring Around the Rosy!

I was able to get in some good cuddle time with Jack. He's getting so big and you could tell he wanted to get down and play with the big kids so much--it won't be long, Jack!!
