Our Sleep-over!

Amber & I decided to have all 6 kids have their first sleep-over. Of course we knew we were in for an exciting day/night, since all are under the age of 4!! They actually did very well, a nap would have made it much more fun. We are doing it Ambers next time, and after they all take naps.

Here they all are after wearing each other out all day long!! I have learned that when you have 3 kids, adding a few more- doesn't really make a difference!

What a mess!!

It's not hot out here

I was hot just sitting out there watching them play. They didn't seem to mind the Texas heat!

Wearing each other out...

Haleigh & Cameron's Birthday Party!

Amber made both the kids b-day cakes- aren't they awesome?? Brooklynn ate so much that she was wired- you could definitely tell. I don't have a picture of Cameron eating his cake- not sure why...but isn't Haleigh adorable??

The Party Crashers...

A REAL Popcorn Machine

s
All the kids were very fascinated by the Popcorn Machine, it was definitely a hit!!

The trampoline

The kids love their trampoline- especially Walker. He was held on to this ball the whole time he was jumping- it was pretty funny.

Slip & Slide

The mommy's had to join too...

It looked like WAY too much fun, so Amber & I joined in. Yes, that is Amber going down the slide on her stomach!!

Bye Bye Balloons

Walker figured out at the end that if you let go of the balloons they dissapear. Before long all of the other kids were letting them go too...it was an easy way to clean up the balloons.

We Rock!!

Who says we are too old for video games? I usually play with them, but with the no rhythm and not being able to carry a pitch in my pocket, I can only do the guitar. But I am surprisingly good, if I must say myself. Now, Thomas- WOW- that boy can kick butt on Expert on the drums- it is also rumored that he can drum and sing at the same time!

Unkie & Nikolas

Aren't Uncles great, the kids love using them as jungle gyms. I always say Uncles are better than babysitters! We miss Uncle Scooter though, one Uncle for each child would be nice!!

Saying Goodbye to Uncle Tom-Tom!

Uncle Tom-Tom is going on a journey to China to be a teacher to little ones (I love the younger ones- well- the kindergartners. We are so proud of him. The kids don't quite understand why he isn't coming over to play. But hopefully soon we will talk to him on Skype, that will be good for them!!

Saying good-bye was tough, he is my youngest brother after all ! Love you and miss you Uncle Tom-Tom
