Jake and Becca Visit

Josh's brother Jake had a work conference in Chicago a couple weeks ago so he and his family drove out and we got to see them at Greg and Shelley's for the weekend and then they came to our house for a day at the end of their trip.  We had so much fun with them and wish we lived closer!  We went to some dunes on Lake Michigan on a frigid windy day  

 Grandpa parked with the little ones partway up

 while the big kids went up to the very top (they were long and steep!) and had some fun rolling

 Sadie and Mariah are about a month apart and were so cute

 They bonded over a love of opening and close the screen door.

 There was of course some football played, some Settlers played, good food,

 and cute Taylor caught a frog.

They came to our zoo with us which I didn't get any pictures but the kids were in heaven to have their cousins AND the zoo all at once.  Thanks for making the long drive out here guys!
