Cousins, cousins and more cousins!

Towards the end of July, Ben's brother Travis and his family came to visit from Ohio.  Ben's sister Jenny also came out about the same time from Arkansas.  The boys were very excited to see their cousins and we had a fun couple of weeks with them all.  To start it off, we had an activity at Ben's brother Paul's house. It was the night of the opening ceremonies for the Olympics so Uncle Paul and Aunt Jessica set up the Gerritsen version of the Olympics.  It was a lot of fun! We then ate dinner and had a sleepover.  Ben, Alex, Isaac and myself slept in a tent and Jeremy slept on the trampoline with his cousins.  Everyone else slept inside.  In the morning, we went to the Timpanogas National park and went on a hike to one of the waterfalls.  It was a hard hike, especially because we took little ones and they had a hard time, especially Isaac, but it was worth it.
