After leaving Miami, we headed straight to my cousin Jennifer's house (my cousin on my mom's side of the family) in the Ft Lauderdale area. Briana was already in her bathing suit because Jennifer has a fantastic pool and the kids were going to go swimming.
Dawn was sweet and gave us Lily's cast cover so Bri could try to swim. Briana tried it out, but unfortunately Bri's little arm wasn't big enough for it and water got in. She looked cute though...
My cousin Jennifer's boys - Brady and Cameron...
Bri really enjoyed the pool - even with trying to keep her hand dry...
After a long time swimming, the kids did a little IPad...
And then some coloring...
Jennifer's husband Andy joined us for a short while, but then he had to go to work. Jen, Doug and I did a lot of chit chatting. It was so good catching up again (we saw them back in Dec!)...
And Jen is expecting baby boy #3 in Sept! Very exciting!
It was so good catching up.
Doug, Bri and I headed out late afternoon and checked into our next hotel...
Bri liked this hotel because she got her own bed...
We were tired and exhausted after the fun and sun, so we went out quickly for a pizza and it was delish...
We turned in early that night.
Sunday, we headed over to my cousin Michelle and her husband Gary's house (my cousin on my dad's side of the family).
It was very exciting to see Briana and my cousin Michelle's son Ethan reunited. They hadn't seen each other since they were babies...
And now Michelle also has a daughter named Eliza that Briana was finally able to meet...
They played video games, played outside for a bit and put together a tent...
My cousin Michelle and I had a great time talking and catching up...
We met my Aunt Eileen and Uncle Sheldon for some dinner at a delicious deli...
My Reuben sandwich...
All the kids together after dinner...
It was a busy, "talk-filled" weekend. It was great seeing my cousins. I'm so glad we finally had some quality visiting time!!
