Cousin Camp 2012


August 9 - 11 was my Caldwell family reunion.  I look forward to it every year because sometimes its the only time I see some of my cousins. It is also fun to see my kids get to know some more of their family.  Finn especially loves to spend time with Carter and Isaac.


This years reunion was a Cars theme.  Finn was excited to see these cars that look like the characters.  We used these cars to have a relay race.  Finn got to be the driver for our family.


Lila wanted her picture taken with the cars too.

Making Crafts


Finn and Ava's toilet paper roll cars.


We decorated cardboard boxes for our "drive-in" movie.  This is Finn with my cousin Tim's little girl Audrey.


Finn and Lila


Lila's messy face after a bag of chips.


This is one of the games we played.  We raced these toy cars down a track using party favors to push the cars along.  Lila just wanted to play with the cars.





Finn is competing in a tire eating contest by eating three chocolate covered doughnuts.

We had a family pine wood derby and Finn was ecstatic!  It was the biggest car ramp he has ever seen.


On Saturday's my dad takes Carter and Isaac to breakfast at McDonalds and then to the Dollar Store and when we come to visit he invites my kids too.  Finn loves it and will pretend for weeks after the he is going to breakfast and the Dollar store with Grandpa.


It's hard to get Finn out of the play place.


Carter climbed to the top to of the play place.


Finn and Ava have become good friends despite the occasional "take down."
