The next door neighbors...

One of my favorite things growing up was spending time with our cousins the Fishbein's. We were so lucky to have it where each of the kids in our family had a cousin counterpart in their family. Lucky for us, we have that in our neighbors next door to us. There is one kid for each of our kids. And even more rare than that is the fact that they get along so well. Above is Spencer and Jacob, they are both into video games and electronics. Both play soccer, but it isn't their favorite thing.
This is Jenna and Grace, they are in the same dance class, and play together all the time. They like playing Barbies, Polly Pockets and Dress-ups.
Here's Melissa and Erin. They can be quite goofy sometimes. They also are in the same dance class. They mostly like to do crafts and bake things together. They have this thing where they like to make up recipes. Some have been great, but most...well...
They got carried away playing with pipe cleaners one day.
Doing the 4th of July Bike Parade.

They even have a little boy Luke for Jayden although they are not old enough to play together yet. Jayden is a year older, but they most likely will be buddies since all the others play together so much.
The really great thing is they live right next door. It is so convenient for our kids to play together. Let's just hope one of us never moves!

Again...jealous. I think it is so fun for the kids to be excited about playing with other kids. The problem is finding the right kids. You know, the kids that don't annoy you when they are over. the ones that play nicely. The ones that distract your kids so that you can get things done. Too bad you guys didn't live closer!
