Steve's sister, Kim, and her husband, Jeff, and my nieces Emily (almost 11) and Elizabeth (5) came for a visit in June.  They live in Smithfield, VA.  For those of you keeping track, that is a long way away.  They spent the first couple of days with us at our house and then they headed over to Ft. Worth to stay with Steve's parents.  They were here for 3 fun and wonderful weeks.  Needless to say, I made the trip over to Ft. Worth quite often during their visit and even had a couple of sleep-overs over there!!  I think it is fair to say a good time was had by all :)

We started off our visit with a trip to the Perot museum.  Such a fun place!!
 





Next on the list was Celebration Park in Allen

 





We also threw in our annual Lance Family Reunion!!  And of course we had to dress the girls in matching shirts!!



Next up on our adventure was a trip to American Girl and an mini photo session in the middle of the store :)


 





By the way, this is what happens when all your grandchildren are girls......


Next, we stopped off at Rainforest Cafe for a little something to eat, which may have been a very LARGE dessert :)




Who could forget our Dinosaur adventure with Dinosaur Dave at the North Richland Hills Library....it was entertainment for all ages, even the mommies!!



And it wouldn't be summer fun without a little bowling involved....


Elizabeth like to mimic everything the older girls did :)




We had a blast with Kim and family in town!!  And I am pretty sure we all slept really good at night because we were all worn out!! The best part is watching Kari, Emily, and Elizabeth play together....they pick up like no time has passed, and they laughed and giggled all the way through the visit.  No fighting, not even once :)  #cousinlove

Until next time....
