cousins & horses & gardens!

After all of our Halloween fun at church, we loaded up and headed to Grandmother's & Grandaddy's for a couple of days. KG needed to be there for some work stuff, so we went along to play.

And play we did... with cousins!!
{Tate, EK, KM}


And yes, KM climbed on that table herself. She is QUITE the climber these days.


After Tate left to take his nap, and we took ours, we played outside on Grandmother's porch...
{EK, KM}



KM spent most of her time lining up these bottles of bubbles that Grandmother had. Everytime KM would knock one over, she would pick it up and line it back up with the others. Kept her busy for a long time. It required serious concentration. (Grandmother also blew bubbles for the girls, and they were pretty excited about that... their first time for bubbles!)


Now, little EK kept herself busy climbing up and down these two steps. Over and over. Up and down. Well, that and posing sweetly for my pictures...




KM also got an up close look at the wind chimes with Grandmother.


Grandaddy played a little guitar for the girls...

And KM just played some peek-a-boo while he played...


And KM managed to get Grandmother to do a little dancing. This is something that KM and I do at home alot... she loves it.



That evening Caden & Tate came over for dinner (along with Adam & Kristen) and Grandmommy & PawPaw, and then all of the cousins showed up in their costumes! I was a semi-lazy mom and the girls did NOT put on full costume that night. We did get a huge group picture... so it's not a good one, but they are all there!!!

And a sweet pic of little EK with her cousin Haley!


The next day we had lunch at the best place in WO... Circle W.

After lunch we went back to Grandmother's and played outside. We got on the neighbor's trampoline for awhile, and then headed to the barn to see all the neigh's!!!

And then we even got to sit on the neigh!!!

And then it was KM's turn...



Obivously, there was some excitement...


After the horses, we walked out to Grandmother's garden.
{KG & EK}


We smelled Grandmother's pretty flowers...

{KM & Grandmother}



It's always excited when we get to see the kitty cat!
{EK & Big'en}


Now KM's turn to chase big'en...


Grandmother also has chickens. And I may have caught KG teaching EK to chase them in this pic...



She really wanted to catch those chickens...


KM was otherwise occupied...




And now she's on the move...



Finally EK gave up and decided to join us... maybe soon she will walk better...


We had a busy, busy couple of days, but it is always fun at Grandmother's!!!
