Cousin Time

Chelsea, Carter and Cash arrived early Wednesday and we got together late afternoon. First thing they did was jump in the pool - five kids and Pa!

Then we had dinner at Red Robin - Pa's treat! (sorry no pictures) Everybody was hungry from swimming! We were saying goodbye to head home and Chelsea and Stephen said they were going to the mall. Tatum immedieately said, "can I get my ear's pierced?" I guess the last few days she had been talking about it to her mom and had finally gotten up her nerve to do it. So, we couldn't miss this moment so we all headed to the mall. A big audience!

Picking out her earrings.

The first ear already done. Usually you have two people working on each ear so the hurt only lasts one time but unfortunately there was only one girl in the store to do the procedure so she had to do the second ear right after the first. Alvin said she probably would just end up with one earring but the girl worked so fast she didn't have time to backout.

She defnitely had a "hurt" reaction but got over it very quickly.

Her mom cleaning them.

Tatum, cousins and brothers all got suckers after the procedure.

And, she was so proud and acted so big. A stop at the Dairy Queen ended the evening.
