G'ma and the cousins

Last week my Mom came to visit and stayed the week with us. We had a great time and the kids loved having her around. The visit actually began with a huge thunderstorm, tornado warning & power outage that lasted until afternoon the next day, but then the weather was great the rest of the week. So we took advantage of the weather and met my sister, two nieces and two great-nieces at the Brookfield Zoo. We had a nice morning followed by a picnic at lunchtime. Elise, my great-niece, loved hanging out with Roslyn and held her hand most of the time. Roslyn really loved having a big-sister-like role. They were really cute to watch while the boys tended to run ahead.
