This weekend we traveled to Kearney, Nebraska to visit Ben's family. The kids loved seeing their Chicago cousins and having dinner outside with Grandma.
These kids played tons of games outside. It was dreamy. We even let Peter stay up until midnight playing tag.
Learning the rules of tag.
Bob was our chef all weekend. He made breakfast, lunch and dinner for 16 people everyday!
The kids all got Mickey Mouse waffles for breakfast.
Fun to eat breakfast with cousins!
We also got to go to a sort of crazy, kind of gross, but fun for the kids indoor pool at the Holiday Inn. As usual, Peter loved it.
Cousin Noah showed him all of the cool spots.
Clara was less sure.
"Are you sure there are supposed to be this many people in here?"
There were these giant indoor slides. Somehow, I was convinced to go down the green slide with Peter. Look closely at this picture and you'll see just how much control I had while going down the slide.
I promised Peter I wouldn't let his head get wet. Oops. Sorry, mister.
Peter and Connor played some great duets.
And Simon really had a knack for the bugle. There is definitely some sort of Miller / Apley band in the future for this generation.
After everyone left, Ben and I stuck around for an extra 1/2 day and went to the Kearney Children's Museum with Grandma Dorothy. It is such a cool spot!
Just stocking up for dinner...
The music area at the museum was super fun.
Especially the dance floor. Clara couldn't even keep up with Grandma Dorothy's moves!
On our last morning, we went for a walk around the neighborhood.
We loved spending the weekend with such an awesome group!
