visiting Steve's family

In October we had a mini Goode reunion. All of Steve's siblings came home for a long weekend.

Here Megan and Peter are riding down a huge slide together.

We went to Cox Farms one day.

Steve and Marie riding down the same slide at Cox Farms

Peter and Sophie walked all around the farm holding hands.



They had animals to feed there. Here they are feeding the goats. There were also cows and pigs.

This is our attemp to get a cousins picture.

Another big slide at the farm. Steve and Marie are sliding down.

Peter wouldn't go by himself so Grandpa took him down the slide.

We celebrated Tony and Peter's birthdays while we were visiting.

Some things I love about the cousins

1. Katie's favorite fruit is "jelly beans."

2. How sweetly Brody talks to "Miss Marie."

3. Sophie encouraging Peter by telling him "your a big boy" and giving him a high five after going down a slide alone.

4. Sophie's words of advice to an upset Marie, "be patient Marie." Hmm, I wonder if Sophie has heard that once or twice before. :)

5. And how nicely they all play together. They truely are each other's best friends.

The night we got there we had some of Steve's high school classmates over for a mini 10 year reunion.
