Fun times for the 4th!

  The week of the 4th I had my nephew....my boys were over the moon happy! {I was too} I LOVE having my sisters kids at my house...seriously love it. We had a blast that week, we went and did all kinds of fun things....movies, Jumpoline, pool, fireworks, park, Natural Bridge Wildlife Park....

Happy 4th of July!!!!

Backyard fun & Goodbyes....

Backyard football....YES!

Kisses turned into...

...monkey faces ;)

Seriously...melts my heart!

Silly boy!

Pure sweetness!

It was hard to say goodbye to the A's.....we miss them tons and are counting down to summer when they get to come back. My house was too quiet after they left :(

Outside fun....

One of the day that the A's were here I took them to the Play for All Abilities Park in RR...they loved it! {Well I think my oldest nephew got bored for a bit, but he is 11} They were all so dirty, sweaty, tired, and hungry when we left. That park is so amazing and I am so glad that we have it semi-close by. I am not a fan of Zilker personally...I only like Zilker when it isn't crowded...and when is that?!? I always feel creeped out at Zilker, but this park I LOVED. We will definitely be returning too many many times.

Boys Boys Boys....

For half of spring break my sister shared her 3 boys with us. I plan on making it a spring break tradition! We had so much fun and I LOVED having a house full of boys, as usual. Everyone always thinks I am nuts for wanting 6 boys in my house all at once for a few days. Well let me tell you, I would have those little stinkers move in if I could, ;) they are such amazing kids! I honestly have not ever met kids as well behaved or respectful as my sister's kids {not saying that because she is my sister either}. They all play together so well and all 3 of my boys idolize her boys, it is beyond adorable to watch them. 

I will say that I did miss my sweet niece though, that lucky duck was on a mission trip in Guatemala...sweet huh! More pics to come from spring break......=)

Sweet baby couldn't bare to miss out on all of the fun!

I think we can squeeze a couple more boys on the couch?!

Miss Dixie was on the opposite side of the room from all the boys ;)

These boys all melt my heart like nothing else!!!!

Armstrong's come to Camp Krause

A couple weeks ago I had musical niece and nephews. I had 2 nephews for a few days, then got my niece, then sent 1 nephew home...ended with having my niece and 1 nephew for a week. Gave them back for 2 nights then we all went camping for the 4th of July on Canyon Lake. Every time my sister lets me have her kids I always try and keep them! They are such wonderful kids. I am not just saying that because she is my sister or because they read the blog either ;) Her kids truly are the most well mannered & respectful kids I know. Her and my brother-in-law have done an amazing job raising them!

We had so much fun while they were here...and my suburban was PACKED! I loved it =) We went to the pool a few times, the jumpy place, vacation bible school, SHOPPING, rode bikes, jumped on the trampoline, chalked up the driveway, plus who knows what else that I am forgetting.

not sure what is going on here ;) he gets it from his Daddy

sidewalk graffiti....LOVE it!!! 

I don't think Corbyn is winning this sword fight!
