Although most of our summer transitions have been welcome, it's been difficult going from our Kuwait community (where there are ALWAYS kids to play with!) to our summer home (where there are RARELY kids to play with). This is why we were SO THRILLED last week when Joycie and Taylor decided to join Nanny and Bubby for their big, two-day trip to Lakefield! COMPANY THAT IS NOT AN ADULT equates to one GIANT HIP, HIP HOORAY for the Parkinson Family!!!!!!!!! The three girls stuck to each other like GLUE the entire time, despite the inevitable sibling/cousin quarrels. (P.S. I plug my mug company wherever I can. Follow us on Instagram @thegluekw....HA!)
We got up to a lot of fun stuff throughout their stay: running through the sprinkler, jumping on the trampoline, arts and crafts, tag, hide and seek, blowing bubbles, throwing rocks, playing at the park, eating Timbits, and taking silly selfies. It was everything a summer with your cousins should include and we can't wait for Joycie to return in August with the rest of the Cousin Crew!
As for the Boring Adults (ha!), Nan is as hip and hilarious as ever. Bubby enjoyed all the grand-baby snuggles she misses out on year-round. And Taylor is GLOWING with her baby bump and the REALLY, REALLY GOOD NEWS is that there is going to be ANOTHER BABY GIRL come November! Poor Cousin Max. But at this point, what's ONE MORE GIRL? ;)
One of the greatest things about their visit was watching Joyce interact with Juliet. Joyce wanted to assist with everything baby-related and we know she's going to be an outstanding BIG SISTER to the newest Hoit gal. We love you, Joyce!
Thank you Nan and Tayls for putting up with a long and uncomfortable car ride to come and visit us. It means so much! And Mom, we look forward to your return next week!
XOXO
