I mentioned a few days ago that Benjamin and I drove back to Idaho with Peter's parents...we were heading back to spend about 4 days with my parents and siblings. Since we didn't make it back for Thanksgiving and we're having a baby in February they really wanted to see Benjamin(I mean, us). We were happy to oblige :-)
Benjamin had a fabulous time having extra stories read to him, special cereals and treats bought, the endless amounts of toys they have for him to play with in the basement, and had fun getting to know his cousins more.
We were treated to a great dinner on Wednesday night thanks to my brother Alan and his fiancee, Natasha. My other brothers Adam and his girlfriend Hannah came over for visits too. Benjamin's favorite part was probably the shopping.....which to him meant running like a complete wild man throughout the stores and having Grandfather chase him. He seriously wore him out, it was hilarious.
Cousins: Aiden, Alexander, Azalea and Benjamin

Benjamin loved having Grandfather make the train go round and round the tracks!!
strangely, this toy occupied much of his time!

We just had a great visit and though we were excited to go home on the airplane and see Daddy on Saturday, we were really sad to go. But we know we'll get to see them all again fairly soon so we'll just look forward to that!
