Saturday with 2nd Cousins, or is it 1st Cousins Once Removed????

This past weekend we headed over to the east coast of Florida to visit my Aunt and Uncle and their children.  We haven't seen them in a little over a year, and it was a great visit. 
 Collin and his cousins got a pool lesson from Papa (Uncle David).  That was hysterical.  My dad trying to teach 3 children ages 8, 6 and 3 learning to play pool.  HA!!  Everyone else in the restaurant got a kick out of it too, except maybe the guys trying to play at the table next to them.  I know they got knocked by a kid carrying a pool stick on more than one occassion.  They had a wonderful time though.  Then it was back to my Aunt and Uncle's for a dip in the pool.
The girls are great swimmers, but Collin held his own, especially once the water guns came out.  I'm pretty sure he got her.

The tubes also let him "swim" around the pool with them. 

Still all smiles, even at over 2 hours in.  Collin really enjoyed throwing rings and dive sticks and then having Brooke and Lauren go get them.

Then there was the pirate ship.  That was of great interest to Collin until he was on it.  He wasn't nearly as interested in the pirate ship ON the water as he was the pirate ship on the ground.

Just for good measure, because he is too small for playtime in the pool, but the most wonderful baby, here is Jack.
It was a great trip.  We hadn't even met baby Jack yet and it was so nice to snuggle with him.  We also enjoyed our time catching up with my Aunt Diane and Uncle Jeff and spending the day with their family.
