Columbus Trip

We were SO spoiled this last weekend. Ken had Friday and Saturday off and Kailyn had Friday off due to Parent/Teacher conferences. We took the opportunity to go to Columbus and stay with my cousin Lisa and her husband Cory. They housed us, fed us delicious food, took us to COSI, and best of all Lisa watched our kids so that Ken and I could go to the temple. We can't thank them enough for their hospitality. We had so much fun! Here are some pictures from our fun at COSI.

Like father, like son. (the matching shirts were totally unplanned)

Caden loved the water area.

Ethan just started holding Caden's hand.

Caden loved hammering in the play house.

Great update Shelly! All of your pictures are so cute. What in the heck is COSI?? Ken is this a new look for you? I haven't seen him in so long I am not sure if it's new or something that he's been sporting for awhile. How fun that you got to go see Lisa, Caden and Ethen looks a lot alike in that picture.

Glad to see so many new postings! It looks like you guys had lots of fun. It's always nice when Dad can play, too -- that time together is so precious! LOVE all the pictures!!

What a great trip! I'm realizing now how rare it is to get a husband home for two consecutive days (or any days at all). You guys are a great looking family!

That's a great family picture. You should use it for a Christmas letter! I'm glad you all got to get out of dodge and have a great weekend!
