Fun with our Niece and Nephew






Steve and I had our niece Lauren (my brother's daughter) and our nephew Cannon (Steve's brother's son) over to spend the night a few weeks ago. Lauren is almost 4 and Cannon is 6 and they get along so well! Having them over for a slumber party was Steve's idea, along with cooking them blueberry pancakes for breakfast! I thought that was so sweet!! :)
We started the evening with the kids making their own child-size pizzas, followed by decorating their own sugar cookies with icing and sprinkles. They had fun playing beauty salon with Uncle Steve and then dress-up together. Lauren seems to just kind of order Cannon around, even though she's younger, but a typical girl!!
The next morning we had blueberry pancakes with bacon! Yummy! Uncle Steve is such a great cook! Then we took the kids to some garage sales and they found some great bargains! Later that day we took the kids to a friend's house to go swimming. We had an excellent time being aunt and uncle that weekend and I got some great photos!!
Being a mommy and daddy is going to be a blast!!!!!!!!!
