We went up to Phoenix for Grandma Charlotte's birthday party. While we were there, we got to visit with family we haven't seen in a while. All of Clay's siblings were there and their children. We didn't get much visiting in because we were too busy partying and taking pictures. Chalice called and wanted to come visit during the kids Fall Break. Our kids were on their Fall Break as well so....... The Duey's came to Bisbee for a few days!!
We're babysitting Sophie at the moment. Treyson thought her bed was the best thing ever. It made Chalice and I cringe every time he dove face first into her fur covered dog bed, but hey, that's what baths and soap is for right?
Monday we spent the day in Sierra Vista. We wanted to wear out the kids but we also wanted Uncle Clay to have a little bit of quiet time. He was a real trooper. 7 kids, 2 women, and one man. Yeah he needed some time! First on our list, go to the park and wear the kids out!
Chalice and Treyson. Treyson was so cute. He is such a happy baby. It was nice to have a female adult to have conversations with. The first night I think we stayed up until 1 AM just catching up with each other. Thanks Chalice for visiting, it's just what I needed.
Chalice made all the girls flower rings. Super cute. I even got one.
Then it was off to McDonald's to eat and play. Wearing out the kids part 2! For the most part the kids all ate really well. They all ate fast, that's for sure. They must have wanted to play really bad! McDonald's is the only place in town with a play place besides the mall so it was packed!
After McDonald's we headed to the mall for part three of our devious plan to wear out the kids. We went to the mall to let the kids play in the play area. We were there maybe 10 minutes.....
Next stop, Urgent care. Bradyn got hurt at the mall. Off we race to get him some help!

Super mom unloading her precious cargo!
One funky looking pinkie toe later were waiting to find out if it's broken! Poor Braydn, it was so painful for him.
I stayed in the parking lot with the kids while Chalice was inside with Braydn. This picture of Shayn and Treyson is one of my favorite pictures of the whole weekend! Look at those baby blues!!
Come to find out, Braydn's toe was dislocated. They numbed it up, popped it back in place and off we went. He handled it way better than I would have been able to! What a tough guy.
We had hamburgers and hot dogs planned for dinner. After the Urgent Care visit we just wanted to go home. Little Caesars to the rescue! 4 pizzas later we had a happy group wanting dessert!
After pizza and baths it was time for a rest and a movie. You would think after a day like that all the kids would be super tired and go right to sleep. Not so! One thing you have to know about the Dozier's by now is how much we love our movies. Tonight's special presentation was Diary of a Wimpy Kid. We had intermission half way through to get everyone ice cream. Mmmmm, Ice cream!
The next morning we dreaded our cousins leaving. After a yummy breakfast of french toast the kids played together as much as they could. They knew their cousins would have to leave soon. I am happy to report, there was no arguing or fighting between cousins at all. It was the perfect few days to make our our fall break extra fun.
Clay even enlisted the help of Braydn to trap the friendly little gopher out front who is tearing up our yard! Bradyn never complained, did whatever was asked of him and really seemed to enjoy spending time with Uncle Clay.
Treyson got in a good nap before the goodbye's. He was a happy camper when he woke up and ready to hit the road for the long drive home!
Sophie was just plain pooped when everyone left. She hadn't seen that much excitement, not to mention kids, in a long time. We had such a great time visiting and playing with our cousins, we may have to make this an annual adventure! Thanks for coming Duey's we love you!
