Crazy Fun Art Day at Aunt Laura's House

As I sit and put this together, my youngest sister Liz is back in New Hampshire after a week-long visit. I am the oldest sister of three and we each have two girls. This, along with our mom, adds up to 10 women...yikes! The first day of the visit, we planned lots of art activities which turned into a gigantic dance party towards the end of the day! Our kids were inseparable the entire time! While we made sure to plan some fun activities for the week, but left lots of room for just catchin' up! Thank heavens for my nieces Amanda and Emily (Jenny's girls who live here locally). They were a huge help, and enjoyed loving the little girls with lots of hugs throughout the day.
It's been 5 months since the cousins last saw each other.....much too long! There were some big hugs to start the day!



Placecards for Grandma's Thanksgiving table. Each kid was put in charge of doing finger print turkeys....with them pooping out after just one because their hands got dirty - go figure??



Amanda and Mikey finishing up on the placecards....did we miss anyone?




Decorated turkey cookies...sure to be a hit!



Emily being sweet to baby Maddie


Dance train...time for a break from "crazy art day"!


The Cousins, loving being together! (Amanda, Maddie, Emily, Olivia, Grace and Megan)


The Day ended with Amanda and Mikey chillin' out in front of the tv.....tired from all those kids!
