My sister and her kids came out a few days after we had Ben. It was just what we needed. The kids were so happy to be spending time with their cousins and it took away from the stress of it all. The only bummer about it all, was the cousins couldn't meet their newest cousin. If you aren't a direct member of the family, you have to be 13 or older to go in the NICU. So we would FaceTime and Jennifer and Grandma would come with me to the 10:30pm feeding. We went on some adventures and did a lot of play time to make up for not seeing their cousin. The whole NICU thing was weird, we just thought he wouldn't be in there long, so we were very hopeful that he would get out before the Hill's left, but that wasn't the case. I think they still had a good time though.

A quick trip to the Prairie Fire Museum.
A visit to Moon Marble Company where they got to watch a real marble being made and got to take home some marbles. Which you will find stray ones resting against base boards all over our house.
We always enjoy our time with the Hill's and are so glad they were able to come out here.
