Cousin Tuesday

Tuesday is such a fun day of the week.  It is the day all the cousins get together and play at Grandpa and Grandma Mack's house.  We have been doing this for about a year now and we always have such an enjoyable time.  Now that it is the summertime we have decided to go to a park occasionally and extend the invite to extended family.  Today we went to Barnes Park.  The kids played soccer, kickball, relay races around the side walk track, on the playground and in the sand in the volleyball court.  We brought chairs and blankets and had our lunch.  The kids really wore themselves out.  The weather was great not to hot.  The kids that played were Britton, Bryson, Parker, Abby, Brynlee, Ethan, Sarah, Carter, Hallie, Ellie, Sadie, Kellie, Josie, Thomas, Nathan, Emilie, Jeff, Amanda, Raechel, Sammy, and Brooklyn plus some of Michelle's neighbors and there kids. 
Then we came home for some arts and crafts.  The boys made melty beads.  Bryson made a really cool tank and Britton made a growing circle.  Parker made a few different creations but none that got melted.  Then we had the Young Women's Girls Camp Fund Raiser.  We had hamburgers and hot dogs, potato salad, chips, watermelon, popcicles, creamies, and lemonade.  We had all kinds of activities set up for the kids to play.  It was a great success.  The ward really came out and supported us.  Everyone seemed to have a good time.  We have a great ward and are blessed to live in a great community.
