Cousin Day at Focus on the Family

 We went to Focus on the Family today with our cousins -- Jenn and Rebekah.  It was fun for the kids to get out, play, and run around after all the cold weather we've been having.

Braden, Rebekah, and Dylon watched "Adventures in Odyssey" in the desert theatre.

Dylon took Lila for a ride in the row boat.

Lila loved hanging out in the boat and watching the big kids.

I love that the boys enjoy time w/ Rebekah.  They were all so willing to pose for a photo.

Lila and Aunt Jenn got to hang out for a bit too.  Lila showed Aunt Jenn all her funny faces and how she LOVES to take off her socks.

Braden was FINALLY tall enough to go down the twisty slide.  It's a 3 story enclosed twisting slide that you can go down inside a fabric bag.  He was hesitant to go, but Rebekah went first and showed him on fun it was.  His first ride, you could hear the giggles all the way down.  When he got to the bottom he said "That was FUN!  I'm going again!" and ran back up the stairs.  Unfortunately, he only got to slide 3 times.  As the kids slid down chunks of ice started to come out with them.  We discovered that the inside of the slide was coated in a sheet of ice about 1/2 an inch think.  They closed the slide because of safety issues.  (the slide itself is outside the building with the entrance and exit to the slide inside).  Next time we go to Focus, I have a feeling this slide will be FIRST on his list!

Dylon spent most of the time pushing buttons inside the big airplane.  He was so excited to "drive" and loved taking other kids for a ride on the plane.  He even took Mommy and baby Lila for a "ride". 

We had such a fun time and look forward to the next "Cousin Day" adventure!
