We went boating 3 times. She's getting pretty good at wakeboarding and she can wakeskate too.
Britnee came with Kamryn and me on a hike with the other cub scouts in our ward to see the dinosaur tracks at red fleet.
We had a sleepover on the tramp, and one in our tent set up in the back yard.
One day we planned to go to the lake to play on the beach, but it rained. The kids still wanted to play in the water, so they thought grandma's hot tub would do. They had a great time playing in the hottub. And I thought hottubs were for relaxing.
The kids all had a great time just playing together. They all got along pretty good, except when my kids would fight over Britnee. They all built this big tent in the living room and played in it for two days.
We finally made it to the lake to play at the beach. It wasn't raining, but it was pretty windy. The kids didn't notice the wind. They just played in the sand and water and had a great time.
Britnee was also able to come with us on our ward campout to Massey Meadow. While there we hiked up to the cave. Everyone had a great time and got plenty dirty. While in the cave all of the kids except Sadie did the part of the cave called the "birth canal". Obviously it is a tight squeeze. They all did so well. Sadie did great too. She was a trooper hiking and exploring the cave.You can't stay in Venal for a week and a half without visiting the dinosaur museum. We had my niece Chloe with us when we went to the museum. The kids loved seeing the dinosaur exhibits. I was a little worried about taking 6 kids by myself to the museum, but they did great.
It wasn't all fun and games while Britnee was here. Wyatt made her and Kamryn go to work. I know child labor. They had to help collate a book so that Wyatt could come with us to Kamryn's soccer tournament and to take Britnee home. Derek didn't want to miss out on anything, so he went to work also. They must have done pretty good, because we made it just on time to the first soccer game.
We all loved having Britnee stay at out house. I hope her family will let her come and stay again. I know they really missed her while she was away.

Britnee did have sooooo much fun. Thank you for taking such good care of her and for entertaining her so well. I love the whole blog thing because even though I wasn't there I can still scrapbook her funnest week of the summer because of all the great pics. Thanks again, and it was so fun this weekend hanging out with you and the kids. We'll have to do it again soon!!!!!
How fun! Cousins are THE BEST! I'm sorry we missed the hike...although I'm betting you'd be grateful Ben wasn't there....he's a bit of a complainer! Who knows!? I'm so glad you guys had super fun with Britty!
