An unusual event occurred at the Bowns home in March when Ross and Shannon got married. Rollie and I had all ten of our grandchildren visiting at the same time. A real first! The visit was not long, only a couple of days, but the children had a chance to get acquainted. So,what did the cousins do in their brief visit?
It looks like Sami has gotten the hang of it.
Megan has reached the expert level in hole making. Grandpa's drill press works great!
Jack settled for building with legos, the kind that his big cousins like to use. Looks like he is ready to move to the next level.
But all work and no play, make Jack and his cousins such dull fellows, so Uncle Robert demonstrated his skills at Ninetendo. They all seem impressed. Jeffrey seemed to be pondering his own ability to challenge his uncle. 
There was some time for outdoor play as well. Aunt Dre-Dre taking the nieces and nephews on a snail hunt. Yes, they found quite a few. 
Aubrey shared her hat specially made for her by Aunt Andrea with her Uncle Dan. Very cute!
With all those people in the house, things could get a bit noisy. Ben solved that problem!
Here is Sami are reading to Aunt Candice, Megan, Emily, and Ella. It looks like Emily might not be too happy that her mom is holding someone else's baby. 
Ella doesn't quite know what to make of the situation so she is staying safe with Aunt Candice. 
Here they all are: Back row, Megan, Joseph, Jeffrey, Courtney ( and baby Ella). Front row: Emily, Ben, Sami, Jack, and Aubrey. We hope it won't be too long before we can do this again!
It seems that Grandpa's workshop was a hit (pun intended). Courtney demonstrates the art of pounding a hole into a board, while Sami, Joseph and Ben begin their projects.
