Cincinnati - Part 1

We had a great long weekend in Cincinnati visiting family. We picked up Will from school after lunch and drove down to Kalamazoo to pick up Phil. We stopped at a playground so Alex could eat and Will could run around before we got on the road. The boys were great travelers and we got to Mimi and GBob's house around 8:30pm. Will remembered everyone from last summer and Alex warmed up to everyone really quick.

On Friday, Sara, Abbey, Owen and Lyla came over to play for a bit in the morning and we all had lunch together. In the afternoon, Phil and GBob went to pick up a souvenir for Phil (see below) while Kristen stayed home with the boys. We played outside with Mimi and waited for Grann to get into town. Then we met up with everyone at the Cactus Pear for dinner and did more playing back at the house. Will loved playing with his cousins! I think they could get into some serious trouble if we let them!

I took so many photos I'm going to post them in installments this week. Here are some shots from the first day:
