We are lucky enough this week of Spring Break to have some cousins from Minnesota come and visit. We went on the train outside of the zoo yesterday - here is Dan and Nick enjoying the ride.
Claire and Kevin having some popcorn.
Elizabeth, Janet and Josh - I couldn't get a picture of my seat with Grandma H and Ben before the train took off - they call all aboard and you'd better hop on before they leave you behind!
Our group on the train - there is Ben and Grandma in the front. We all had a really good time and spotted lots of turtles and ducks on the Trinity River.
Poor Ben! We were at Elizabeth's soccer practice last night and Ben was having fun running down a hill. This hill is kind of rocky and weedy, and he fell down catching himself with his hands. He stood up and was crying just a little. When I went to pick him up some blood dripped on me so we were searching all over - where could he have hurt himself? Then was noticed the inside of his wrist - he cut it open. It was a short cut but gaping, so off to the ER for stitches. He was so brave - not ONE TEAR! The doctors all said they needed him to show all the big kids how to do it. I thought he would at least cry when all the big men held him down, but nope!
He ended the evening with a popsicle and rubber ducky. He thought it was a great time so I guess that's all that matters!

Watch out, he now knows that popsicles are available at the ER! I am glad he is okay, looks like we was such a big boy.
The train ride looked like a lot of fun too!
Wow Ben, what a great job! I am so impressed you didn't cry at all! You and Cooper are going to have to compare scars.
The train did look like fun!

Seeee... weren't you just saying a few weeks ago that you couldn't believe that Ben never had any stiches or anything... Now you can rest easy ;) Looks like Ben was a very big boy! And he looks so cute in those ER pics!
Ouchie!! You sure have had your "response time" tested lately. Another little boy well taken care of!
