Cousin trek day 5...

I took Bryan and Brady on a books and donuts date this morning. The two-and four-year-old crowd can summon a lot of enthusiasm over donut selection.



I took the big boys on a Starbucks and Lego game date yesterday. It costs more to buy two chai lattes and two mini donuts from Starbucks than it does to buy two drinks, five large donuts and two dozen donut holes at the donut store.

Jacob and Maggie's Disney World conversation:

Jacob: Did you ride any cat rides?
Me: (Confused. Was there some kind of Cat in the Hat ride???)
Maggie: (Without missing a beat, statement not a question) You mean kiddie rides. Yes.
