On Father’s Day we headed over to Papa and Grandma’s house. All of the cousins were there and the kids had a blast. There were water toys and more water toys.


My brother thought he was one of the kids and decided to show them how its done. He actually came outside wearing flippers and goggles which made all the kids scream hysterically.

There is just something magical about playing with your cousins. No pressure to get to know them. No pressure if they’ll like you. They just do. And when your 1, 2, 4, or almost 7 you play and play and play.


Then my other brother thought he’d show the kids how things are done.
And everyone just sort of meandered around trying to stay out of the splash zone.



Mr. Dunbar was a little worn out already so he just supervised and relaxed.





And after almost 6 hours of playing this is how my boys ended up.
Bogie didn’t wake up until the this morning, he was just that wiped out.

So here’s to good father’s who will raise up another generation of honorable men.

Looks like an amazing Father's Day!!!
Okay, that last photo amazes me. You REALLY ought to do some freelance work, girl! I am serious -- you have a gift for capturing children in the most natural ways.
{How relieved I was to read further that the bed jumping was on a low bed. I about had a heart attack when I read the kids jumped and jumped on a bed!}
Looks like it was a fabulous day. Great pictures. What fun all those cousins get to have with each other. I love how you put it... they don't have to worry about being liked, or getting to know them... so true. I have 12 cousins. They're the best.
Sorry about your washing machine! Did they fix it?
Love all the fun and smiles. What a great weekend except for the washing machine - hope it's fixed now. Looks like you need it with all the water fun you've been having.
What a shocker!!! Of course your dad is wearing his superman sun glasses or protective armor, however you want to see it. Glad you had fun, it is about time!
what a great weekend...looks like lots of love and smiles!!! Love your pictures as always!!!
Looks like a wet, action packed weekend! What a great Father's Day!!!
looks like a wonderful day/weekend! hope the washer is fixed and everyone was a happy kinda tired by weekend's end!
That looks like a fabulous weekend! I agree with you. Something about the kids playing with their cousins is just magical. BTW, have I told you yet how much I love your blog header? Great photos!
So much fun!! There is No fear of water in those kidlings!! ;) my kids hate water in their faces... just now at age 8 & almost 10 .. just now... they are coming to grips with dunking under water... and letting 'some' splashing hit their faces!! =) *sigh* Such a blessing to have cousins that get along so well.. =) we have those too!
Looks like a fabulous day, especially with them all tuckered out. That is the evidence right there! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your last quote about raising honorable men. Love it!
Oh, I love it, what a fun weekend! You gotta love those days when the kids play hard (followed by a good long nap!).
