HOMESTEAD 2012

Every year my Grandparents hold a "Family Gathering" over the 24th of July weekend.  We love getting together and seeing all our cousins.  This year we went to the Homestead in Midway.

It is tradition for the kids to go on a beanie baby hunt.  Connor got an alligator. When I asked him if he liked it he said, "yes! Grandma picked an alligator for me because she knows I love Swamp People."
Swamp people is a show on History channel-It is reality television focusing on alligator hunters.
Today Connor was watching Curious George and he cried and cried telling me it was too scary and to turn it off.  Funny he loves Swamp People and Curious George is scary...go figure!

Cousins!!!



My darling grandmother, aunt Julene, cousin Whitney and her daughter Julia.


The view from our cottage...Connor keeps asking if we can move back into the brown house-in other words our homestead cottage with all his cousins.

We rode the Heber Creeper, could it get cuter than this....


It just might.  Here is a couple pics of Brooks excited to see his cousin Evelyn.
