Family Visit!!!

We had a great visit with Kevin's parents, sister and 5 cousins this weekend!!!

The Twins
Andrew and his cousin Anthony were born 5 days apart...Andrew on the 5th and Anthony the 12th...thus came the nickname the Twins!

The Cap Crusaders
My boys like to take these blankets I made them and try them into caps...So when Keith and Dillon saw Parker with his on they had to have their blankets made into caps too!!!

It was so much fun watching them run around the house with their caps on!!!

7 kids camping out in one room...need I say more!!!

Baby Jasmine...isn't she a sweetheart!

My boys could not get enough of Jasmine!!!

Andrew especially...he just want to hold, feed her and play with her all the time!

The Wii...

Some sort of Dancing Game that was so fun to watch all the kids do!!!

Of course the older boys who were to Cool for dancing took their turn playing some battler games!!!

Dog pile!!!

These two had a blast together and it is so nice how close they are...that after 2 yrs apart it's like they hadn't even missed a beat!!!

So sad to go...
Andrew asked if he could see Anthony a lot when we go back to Cali. for Christmas...I think since both our parents live in Lancaster that Andrew could spend the nigh a few nights with his best bud!

Stow aways!!!

We all look forward to the next visit with the Westbergs at Christmas!
We really were sad to see them leave I'm so happy they could come and it was great watching all of the kids get together and play well with one another! And my poor niece even let me do her hair which I loved (seeing as I only have boys)!

More adventures await till next time...

Party Time!!!

Happy 9th Birthday Andrew!!!

We had 9 crazy fun boys over for a pizza party sleep-over!

The best thing about boys we didn't have to plan games...all they wanted to do was play outside...and they made sure every gun, sword and light saber we owned was out there with them for one awesome battle!

Don't forget the Spongebob pinata!

Present time!!!

This Nerf gun here shoots like 30 darts and 2 missiles...I bet the boys wished this gun was at the park earlier for their battle!

Money Money Money!!!

Don't get the cheese touch!

Make a wish!

After cake we had a big game of hide n seek in the dark...but the person who was it wore night vision goggles...the boys loved it!

So after almost putting the kids in to a sugar coma with the pizza, soda, cake, candy, and games we settled down to watch Andrew's new movie "The Diary of a Wimpy Kid"...most of the boys had seen it already so it was funny listening to them talk about each part coming up and how funny they thought it was!

So after all that they went to bed late and woke up early so Andrew I hope you know how much we love you and I hope you had an awesome birthday!

The first day of School...

And so it begins...

Andrew is now in the 3rd grade and super
excited about it!

Hunter started the 1st grade and even though he doesn't look happy he was really excited to go back to school!

Oh how I miss them when they are gone...

...but the fun stories they share when they return!

Preschool!!!

This week my baby Parker started preschool!

Parker was really excited to go to school like his brothers!

Parker and my niece McKayla!

Parker's best bud Connor!

Girls Night

Thanks to Stephanie we had an awesome girls night Thursday night!
First went for some Yummy sushi at Kona Grill followed by playing at Charming Charlies, a great HUGE toy store for women filled with jewelery separated by colors, purses, hats, belts, shoes and lots more...

After Charming Charlies we went out to Swirl it for some very Yummy frozen yogurt!
Really it doesn't get any better than playing in an jewelry shop and eating low fat yogurt with a group of awesome women who really know how to have fun!

I love sushi but never have tried raw sushi before and Kevin is always trying to get me to taste it. So here's a picture of the raw sushi I ate so Kevin would know I tried it and you know what was so good!
