birthday weekend

Yesterday afternoon we got back from a weekend visit with Chris' family. We had lots and lots of fun. :)

Lego time.

They put in a new swing which was perfect for two. 

Chris and his brother and niece "challenged" Cam to a Monopoly game. Challenged is in quotes because Cam cleaned house and played the best game ever. For Monopoly enthusiasts, he ended the game owning every single property except Boardwalk and Park Place!!

A highlight of the weekend for all the kids was a trip to a huge waterpark on Saturday. They had been looking forward to this for a looong time. Kendall wasn't tall enough to do any of the main slides. However this didn't bother her a bit as she was quite content on all the little ones. :)

The biggest highlight for Cam was his birthday gift. The whole family went in on his new Lego set, The Parisian Restaurant. He had to wait until we got home yesterday to start and boy was he ready! He spent 4 1/2 hours yesterday working on it and he is not even half way done!
