Jillian and Max are very lucky to be growing up just a few minutes away from their cousins. The proximity allows us to do lots of fun things together fairly regularly. Our Good Friday tradition has been to color eggs and this year was no different. (The only difference being we got to enjoy the beautiful weather by coloring eggs outside this year - when was the last time we could do that?)
The kids have so much fun playing together. Jillian and Max really idolize Emma and Ava and they both really adore Colton. It is so sweet to see Jillian especially play "mommy" with Colton. She is so loving.
It's also been neat to see how much the kids can do by themselves this year versus last year. Emma and Ava have a huge playset in their yard that, in the past, had my heart racing and my arms ready for a catch every time Jillian or Max attempted to climb it. This year, they climbed with ease, and I relaxed on the deck, enjoying the banter of kids having fun in the spring sunshine.
Later in the evening, Uncle Nate had to help daddy with a few projects, so Emma and Ava came back over for another visit. Max and Jillian had fun showing off their new swings (no more baby swings!) and driving their big cousins around in their "Monster Truck Jeep".
If our fun Friday was any indication of how our summer will be this year, we're in for a great time!
