Friends

The Bunch family came over for dinner tonight, and all the boys had a blast as usual.  They love having friends right down the street.  I can't believe we caught them all sitting down.  This was a rare moment!

Mellow Mushroom

We tried out the Mellow Mushroom with the Bunch Family tonight, and it was insane.  Anytime you get a group of rowdy boys together, it is sure to be loud.  We were lucky enough to be seated in the bus, and this made the experience so much cooler for the boys.  The pizza was delicious, and we will definitely go back again.  

Bunch of fun

We had a relaxing evening with our favorite neighbors to enjoy the Good Friday extra day off.  All the kids played upstairs quietly, and we should have known they were up to something.  I went upstairs to assess the situation, and I found them all having a blast while destroying the playroom.  Thing is, I love it.  I am so glad this huge room is getting some use and making some fun memories.  Ryland and Charlie were very secretive about what they were up to, but I have a feeling it will end in tears.

 

Grace was sitting quietly reading in the rocking chair.

 

Travis and Reed had emptied the toy box and climbed in.  Who needs toys?

 

By the end of the night, everyone was worn out.  We started Horton Hears a Who, and we soon had droopy eyes.

Red Dog Right

One of our favorite spots to eat with the kids is Red Dog Right. They have great half price pizzas and decent drink specials.The kids love it because there are coin operated games that give candy for prizes.  We hit a new low tonight when we caught our adorable children laying on the floor eating candy.  Lots of candy.  I guess we were visiting with Kelsey and Carl and didn't realize how much candy they were winning; however, they were in heaven.

Fun with the Bunch family

We headed over to hang out with the Bunch gang tonight and what perfect timing.  As we pulled into their neighborhood, the rain started pouring down.  We pulled up at their house, and we just sat for a while to watch in absolute amazement.  It has been a pretty dry summer, so I think we were shocked at the rain. 

The boys had a blast playing with their friends and all their awesome toys.  It cracked me up that they all wanted to dress up.  Nothing gets a party started like a superhero outfit/cape.  I quickly realized that my boys need some dress up clothes and a couple Nerf guns. 

 



Fun with friends

A great time with friends and family.  We had a huge spread of tasty food and lots of cool drinks.  Reed found a comfy beer box to sit in and quickly realized that it was stuck to his rear, which he thought was very funny.

Darrin pushed 4 kiddos with the support of Carl.  Great multi-tasking!

 

As always, Gracie was awesome with the little ones.  Benton was immediately smitten.

 

Ryland and Charlie wanted to play a little pong like the big boys, so John Chris set up a table just for the kids.  Juice pong!

 

Gracie took on the boys and held her own.

 

Chanda and Benton chilled by the snacks and enjoyed the craziness.

 

After a very competitive evening of juice pong, the kids devoured some delicious cupcakes. 

 

We made a huge pallet in the family room for all the kids, so they could watch a movie.  What a fun night!

 

Brad got a little silly in the later hours.  He transformed into Spiderman with the help of Ryland's swim fins. Ha ha ha ha!
