Cousin Love

These guys can't get enough of each other.  I had to take my van into the Honda dealership- rather than wait to start the cousin party after I was done they tagged along.  It was lunchtime so we walked to the nearest burger joint.  It was packed so the kids asked if we could "drive" through- why not?  They thought it was hilarious to walk through the drive through.  Love these sillies.
For another field trip we went to the Botanical Gardens in Boise.  Lily had been on a field trip so we had free passes and she wanted to show everyone the cool plants.  Well Andrew and Luke weren't loving it so much - then we realized we were right next to the Old State Penitentiary.

Kate had been to the penitentiary on a field trip in 4th grade and had been traumatized.  Every time I suggested we go (it is on the 10 places to visit in Boise list) she freaked out.  Well she was at girls camp so we decided to try the penitentiary.



The pretend jail and outfits were hilarious.  The rest of the tour was less funny.  Some stories were pretty scary or creepy.  I found it totally interesting but I did have to exit with a little kiddo a time or two in order to edit the stories.  The boys loved it.  Glad we visited but really glad Kate didn't listen to those stories again.
Here they are in a real cell.  Emily makes the best inmate faces don't you think?
