Family "FUN" Week

I am finally getting around to blogging about our Family Week last week. I forgot to mention in my earlier blog that one of Dave's brothers, his wife, and their 4 boys were coming to visit last week. We all had a GREAT time! We started the week off by going to the zoo.



Then on Tuesday we went to the Discovery Center Museum in Murfreesboro. We were there for 4 hours and the kids would of stayed longer if we let them.



On Wednesay we went to Jump Zone. The kids played on the bouncers for 3 hours. I thought they would of all wanted to come home and take naps. Instead they put their swim suits on and went swimming...awwww to be a kid again and have their energy!



I forgot my camera on Thursday but we went to the park and Robyn got to help make homemade pizza with her Aunt and Cousin. The pizza was so YUMMY! I think I may have to try to make some this weekend!

On Friday I watched the kids for a couple of hours so their mom and dad could go to the Temple. The kids had a picnic outside and played on the swing set and trampoline. (Mikey, Jonathan, & the baby were all asleep when I took this picture).

We had 8 kids here (ages 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 1/2, 2, 1, 2 months) for the week and I think they all did great! We had a wonderful time together and are looking forward to getting together again! Thanks for making the trip to see us...it was nice to have visitors!

  1. No, THANK YOU for having us. It is a treat for us to have family a mere 10-12 hours away! I learned so much from spending a week with you- you gave me so many good ideas for things to do with my family. I haven't ever been really adventurous with taking the kids places, but you have shown me that it is possible to do that with 4 kids in tow. You are amazing. Good luck with the pizza-BTW I left nearly a whole bottle of sauce in your fridge door.... I was going to mention it before I left, but hopefully you've found it by now. You can put it in the freezer if you aren't going to use it right away.

  2. What a great idea for family fun week. It seemed like you had lots of great stuff going on all week. I wonder if I could handle not using the computer for a week. Isn't that sad? Am I that connected to it?
