Summer Vacation to TX

A couple weeks ago, the boys and I journeyed to East TX for a fun week with my family, which included all of Oliver and Owen's cousins which now total 5 but will be 6 by the end of the year. We enjoyed a couple days of calm with just my parents and brothers before all the cousins arrived. Oliver proudly showed off his new track and train that he earned after good eating for 10 meals.
And Uncle Benj really enjoyed spending time with the boys...
 ...before heading off to ALERT boot camp.
Then the arrival of the cousins:
 That was promptly followed by a foam sword fight!!
 The babies enjoyed each other's company.  
Of course swimming was one of the favorite activities for the week:  
Also, story time with Nana and Papa Doc and Uncle Kevin.
Here's a group shot of all the cousins:
 We sure enjoyed our visit and look forward to seeing everyone again at Christmas.
