While they were with me, we packed in a ton of fun stuff. We spent a day at the fabulous Alderbrook Park, did a super-competitive water balloon toss challenge, played games and did puzzles, had dinner out and spent time at one of our favorite local parks. I was beat afterward, but I love having these memories with them. Next year we are hoping that Holden and Baby Pearson can join in on the fun!

| This picture is blurry but I love it. The kids were really into puzzles and worked hard to finish this one while Cole was napping. |
Ainsley: Ainlsey is just a sweet, sweet girl. She was always saying please and thank you, and is so helpful with Cole. She reminds me a bit of me at a kid because she loves to read and we talked a lot about books. I can't remember a time when she didn't do what I asked of her, and she lets me give her lots of hugs and love.
Connor: There is something really special about the Con-Bon. He used to run from me when I would try to hug him and was a bit shy when I would try to talk to him, but lately I see a different side. He was so fun to be around, because he has a silly sense of humor and a cute smirk when he makes a joke. Really reminds me of my Dad. He also takes special care to look out for Cole, which melts my heart.
Berkley: B is the fire and spice of the group. She has no problem keeping up with the big kids and is always moving. She looks just like her mama and has the cutest little calves you've ever seen. She was always singing and humming, and taught me all the words to Thumbkin.
