Sprinkler Fun!

So we have now had 2 nice days in a row...I could get used to this!  Yesterday we went to discovery canyon and the boys LOVED it!  WAY better than last year!  And today after the boys woke up from their nap we had some friends over and set up the sprinkler...they couldn't get enough!

The only picture I have with all three of the boys in it!

I think this was the only time that Venice went through...she was not a fan!

Matthew and Nathan making a plan

Nater running, running, running! (and Lucas giving me a dirty look! ha)

Nathan LOVED running through the sprinkler, seriously he could not get enough!

Matthew having some fun!

Nater

Giselle not quite sure about it...she did warm-up to it after awhile though!

Nathan James

Luc ended up stepping into some mud and did not like it AT ALL!  It took him quite awhile to get back into it after that!

My Matthew

Baby down!

Matty Bear

Happy Nathan

Lucas and another one of his "looks"

Carwash time!

Hopefully it is nice enough out again tomorrow to do it all over!

Also if you have never visited my other blog now is the perfect time...2 more followers and I am going to do a giveaway!

too many monkeys jumping on the bed!

The Roy & Winter girls came over this afternoon for a play.  Chrissy, Ali and I were sitting in the living room and all of a sudden there were no kiddos...they had found a bed to jump on!!!

 Giselle wanted to get in on the action too :)

The kids played SO well together today.  At one point they all came running out one behind the other, did a lap around the island in the kitchen, and went back to jump on the bed!  Love these kiddos!

11 more sleeps until Christmas!

Our activity for today was a "Christmas" playdate with the Roy and Winter girls.

Matthew and Giselle racing for something...doesn't Giselle look determined!

 The balls were FLYING out of the tent, and all of the kids could not have been having more fun!

 Action shot! (and if you look close you can see Matthew trying to sneak in through the window!)

 All three fellas on the move!

 The boys were having trouble getting in the front door of the tent (because the girlies were throwing balls out) so Nathan decided to go over top!!!

 Lexie, Venice and Nathan waiting for Jack to come out!

Chrissy sharing some cupcakes with the boys!

 Lucas loved Giselles shiny shoes!!

 Ali and her girls

 Chrissy and Lexie

 Me and my boys! (Lucas was not digging the opportunity to sit nicely with his mom and brothers for a picture)

 All the kiddos! Matthew was trying to escape and Lucas wanted no part in this picture either!

Blue, Orange and Green

Today we had the boys' friends over for their blue, orange and green themed birthday party.

Some of the decorations...

Favors

Food

Treats

We started outside....and ended up inside, the weather just did not cooperate!
Here is Matty outside. We are seeing this face more and more often!

A serious Nathan

Little Lucas

Nathan looking to Aunty for some tips on how to eat corn on the cob! He looks amazed at how good she can do it!

Everyone snacking on their corn!

Matty just loving it!

Me and my Matty

Daddy and Lucas

Nathan and Matty working together to open one of their gifts...they loved the tissue paper!

Get in there Matty Bear!

Nathan checking this one out...should I open it...

no I think I will sit on it!

Bennett showing the boys how to do it!

Nathan giving it a go

Matthew checking this one out

Lucas must have seen Nathan having fun sitting on a gift so he thought he would give it a try too!

Bennett and Venice playing with one of the new toys!

I just had to throw this one in there to show how badly the boys need to get their hair cut. We try to tuck it behind their ears all the time but every once in awhile it sneaks out and man is it ever long!!!

Lucas found some balloons to play with

and so did Matthew!

Nathan also had a cute picture with the balloons but I just delelted it by accident and anyone who uses blogger knows how hard it can be to insert a picture to the end....and I am too tired to start over :(

Thanks again to everyone who was able to make it to the fellas party, all the people who helped me get things ready for the party ahead of time and also to our clean-up crew, we love you all!
