and then the Shaffers got together

When we took our quick trip to Illinois, Chris and Kim were nice enough to let us crash at their house. We always look forward to getting to see them and the boys absolutely love getting to see their cousins.  Friday morning, we exchanged our presents.

I think all the kids have DSs now, except for Liam and Kella.

The boys got new games :-)

Ewan got a huge hand.  He wore it for part of the car ride home that day, too.  He had fun running around pretending to be part robot.

had to get in a little bit of Just Dance.  Cale loved having someone to "compete" against and Liam just liked dancing.  Liam likes all the songs, but likes to start out with Tik Tok by Ke$ha.

I just like snapping photos like these :-)

the moms are always left out of pictures-we needed one of us!

It was great to see them, too.  We could have easily stayed longer, but they were headed to Kim's family and we wanted to get back home that night.  Wish we lived closer to them, too.  The boys are already asking when we will see them again.
