We had a wonderful weekend filled with very special company! My cousins Jamie and Matt along with Jamie's boyfriend, Ty, arrived on Thursday for a visit. Drew and I picked up Matt after swimming lessons on Thursday evening and headed straight to Smithfield's for some yummy North Carolina BBQ, something Matt had been looking forward to. We ate, hung out with the boys, put the little guys to bed and then I went back to RDU to pick up Jamie and Ty! We had a fun evening chatting on the porch over a few beers. On Friday morning they joined me and David in cheering for Drew at Little Kickers. Drew was beside himself that we were all there so acted quite silly! He kept running over to the sideline to see us and then would hop around, I guess it was his way of showing off. He eventually calmed down and we were able to watch him play. After soccer, I took Jamie and Matt to the hospital to see our Uncle Mark. After a nice visit with him, we headed home to relax a little bit before dinner. We got a sitter on Friday evening and met our cousin Brian at a Raleigh restaurant where Danny bar tends. We had a fun time catching up with them! We went to the Watson's on Saturday afternoon for dinner and had a great time reminiscing. The kids played outside and beat the heat running through the sprinkler. On Sunday we ate at Smithfield's again (can't get enough of their 44oz sweet tea!) and visited Uncle Mark one more time before dropping Jamie and Ty at the airport. Matt stayed another night and we enjoyed his company! We ordered pizzas and just lounged on the couch. I took Matt to the airport on Monday afternoon and now it's back to just the four of us. I really enjoyed having my sweet cousins (and Ty!) here! Thanks for the many, many laughs!
Jamie and David late on Thursday night after she and Ty flew in. She wanted to see David so we peaked in on him around 10:30pm. He woke up and gave Jamie a huge smile so we couldn't resist getting him up to play! He hung out with us on the porch for a while and then went right back to bed. What a sweetie!
Dinner on Friday night at the restaurant where Danny works. We had a great time and Danny took good care of us!

Just the cousins!
Drew and Whitley cool off with some fun in the sprinkler.
We put candles in the banana pudding to celebrate Ty's birthday. Drew and Whitley help blow out the candles. Happy 29th Ty!!!
Poor David, he will be so mad at me one day for this picture! People always say David is pretty and some even say he should have been a girl. We decided to put a little pink bow in his hair to see how he would look but he's all boy! He's just a beautiful little boy :) Drew, who never misses a beat, immediately noticed the bow and saved his little brother. He gently took it out of David's hair and put it in Whitley's.
We couldn't get a good picture of David because he never stops flapping his arms!
Whitley had a "ball" playing outside on Saturday. Drew and her were playing with the balls and then the adults joined in. It was a gentler version of dodge ball and the kids loved every second of it!
The girls with happy David.

Both boys just couldn't get enough of Jamie, Matt and Ty!
