We've had some great times at Dan's parent's house in Manuta so far this Summer. We spent some time up there after Dan's hip surgery with just our little family of four.
McKenna in the "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse." It was a chicken coup Dan's parent's had turned into a playhouse. Lots of Disney character stickers, pictures, and pillows for decorations, and a play kitchen, dishes, food and table. Such little kid heaven!
The swimming is also heavenly!
Sleeping on the way to Mantua. Extra cute with extra large cheeks. :)
This is what Ben does almost every time we take him on a Ranger ride. I guess the loud hum and heat from the engine below the seat make for a sleepy boy.
It's difficult to require a nap for McKenna when there's so much fun to be had. But a lazy afternoon watching Fantasia knocked her right out!
Snacks outside
We also had an extended Thompson Family gathering at the end of June for my side of the family. Those in attendance: my two local siblings, three of my dad's sisters Aunt Shauna, Aunt Joan (and fam), Aunt Alyson (and fam), and Gma and Gpa Thompson. My cousin Peggy (and fam) also stopped by for a day of swimming. In all, probably around 27 people. The kids all practically lived in the pool. The weather was awesome and McKenna was totally entertained by all the other cousins around!
At night, we stayed up late playing games like, Apples to Apples, Couch of Power, and Killer Bunnies (we still need some practice at it).
Here's Ben giving my grandparents "bones." :) They're so hip!
There were plenty of ranger rides, walks, and hikes as well.
We love all our Mantua memories!

Such great memories, I'm so thankful to you guys and the Websters for sharing it with us. It was a fantastically good time!
I have no idea what Couch of Power or Killer Bunnies is... Also, is that carpet inside the chicken coup? Awesome playhouse!
