The Northerners

We were so fortunate that Andy and Natascha (my cousins) and their little boy Carson thought us normal enough to come visit and stay with us on their vacation. They are from Michigan and wanted to get away from the snow. They couldn't have picked a better week! It was in the 70s and 80s all week! Carson is 13 months and Allison had just really started walking for real the week before they got here. (see post below) So she loved having someone older than her around. They were buddies all week!

First Meeting:
At Bucca di Bepo (Planet Hollywood bought them out and it's not as good anymore, boo!)


We went to the Ft. Worth Zoo:

Allison-Allison "petting" a penguinAllison making her sniffy faceI tried to get them both smiling and this was the closest it got, I have about 15 other shots of them picking at each other, bending over, leaning opposite directions, it was funny trying to find a good one of both of them.Cason making his sniffy face.

Sharing....No pictures, pleaseWatching a video together"You come here often?"The Captain and his SkipperThe Girls and JasonBenjamin, up to his old tricks...I ran across this one and noticed you can see the teeth! I have been trying to get a good one but can't seem to, so this will do!The almost married couple!Chilling at Sonic after the parkA Forced Goodbye hug!We had so much fun watching the kids interact. When one would cry about something the other would fake cry in response. They both did the "sniffy" face the whole week (Allison had forgotten how) and I think Allison might have given Carson a lesson in yelling. (She's really good at it!) I hope we go up north for Christmas and can give these two another chance to hang out, it was such a blast!
