Chuck E. Cheese and meeting new cousins

Today was a lot of fun! John's Aunt Betty, his cousin, Amy, and her three children are here in town from Oklahoma. I have met Amy and Aunt Betty but not Colton, Kenley, and baby Eli. Addison was very excited about meeting her cousins for the first time! She's carried a picture of baby Eli in her "purse" since he was a few months old. We had a wonderful time playing together! Kenley carried Addison around on her hip and played games with her. Colton used his own tickets to buy Addi a necklace, bracelet, and hair barrettes. They are precious children, and we really enjoyed seeing them and getting to know them. We sure wish they lived here! Jett, Dartmouth, Aunt Laura, and Grandma had a great time, too. Addison is just in love with Chuck E. Cheese. If you could only see the way she looks at him. She got on stage with him and held his hand and danced. However, she was crushed (literally and figuratively) when he slammed her in the head with his robotic hand and knocked her down. She bawled, mostly due to hurt feelings. Thankfully, she forgave him pretty quickly. She loved when Chuck E. Cheese came out from behind the stage and did the hokey pokey. She kept hugging his legs and touching his hand. It was so sweet! Here are some pictures from our day together.

Colton and Dartmouth

the whole crew!

Jett, look happy! Eli, look this way! Addi, put your drink down.

Addi, look over this way!

Dartmouth, stop making faces!

Addi loves cousin Kenley!

She loves cousin Colton, too!

Awww! Sweet Chuck E.
