cousins reunited in yarnell. tear drop, movies, and shucking corn.

thursday, july 29, 2010. after maaa... and levi went down to watch espen yesterday, he came back with them to wickenburg. the kiddos chose to stay the night there, so maaa... brought them to yarnell this morning.
seriously? LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER. when maaa... brought the boys over this morning and i noticed she and i had the same exact pants on and we both chose to wear a turquoise shirt. too crazy. she's so cute!!!
abraham hadn't seen espen in over a month. i wasn't sure how they were all going to get along after not seeing each other so long, but they did ok. the bigger boys kind of ignored abey a bit, but when levi was off doing his own thing, which doesn't happen very often, espen and abe would toot around together.

joshua bought us sweet corn. the boys tried to use tools to shuck it.

abraham found g'pa's glasses.
all done cookin'.
buttering.
i wanted to get a pic of the boys watching a movie before bed. espen closed his eyes because he said sometimes the flash hurts his eyes.
then for some reason abraham started covering his ears and levi had his hand near his mouth...
...so i had the boys do "speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil."

our last full day in illinois. part three: shucking corn, crazy cool storm, levi and a jack.

mmm mmm sweet corn.
abe was so dramatic about shucking corn. just look at his face.
