Another Day in Paradise

I have been so excited to finally visit Elizabeth's house! Jon went out there when he used to travel to Dugway, but none of the rest of us had been there. We'd only heard rumors of this magical place. And said rumors were not overblown! There was so much to do without even leaving their (granted, HUGE) property! 
Seth tries out the swing

Thrill-seeker buddies Hazel and Elise go off-roading

When all the cousins are much, much younger than you, 
you play on screens for entertainment. 

Hazel, Elise, and Annie.
These three had SO much fun together!

Swimming in the wasp-infested pool.
Catherine is the official wasp-hunter.
Annie and I both got stung, but we survived!

Don't forget the awesome zipline Kade made!
Catherine is ready for a turn.

Down she goes! 

Hazel & Catherine waiting to ride again.

I have no idea what is happening hear, but it clearly called for sunglasses and two magic wands. 

Jon taking some time to catch up on his reading.
No wonder he's such a slow reader...

Elliot and Aaron were in their glory together.
They had some extremely complicated game they created and were playing together. 
Most of their time seemed to be spent discussing rules and stat blocks.
I am so, so grateful Aaron has an Elliot best friend cousin!

Elijah also got a turn on the zipline!

That evening we celebrated Grandma Sara's birthday with a massive, delicious chocolate cake!
Grandma and grandkids.
And Kade.

Seth, pestering Grandma.
Shocker.

Highlight of the trip for Seth: shooting real guns!
Uncle Kade is seriously the best.

The Crawford homestead. 
Such a beautiful place!
