I don't think it's any surprise to anyone out there that I go a little overboard with the pictures sometimes. I really can't help it. Whenever I get my camera out (Which is very often!) I have this fear of missing "the perfect moment," so I snap a thousand pictures to make sure that doesn't happen. This visit was no exception. I have weeded down those "thousand" to a substantially lower number. All I ask, is that while your scrolling down, wondering to your self when the stream of pictures will finally end, please remember that I really did try. :)

Also, I have to say, that I got a few comments claiming I am a fantastic friend for watching Diana's kids. Let the record show that come February or so of next year, when Dan and I are on a vacation together and my kids are at her house, she might not agree! My kids have ten times more energy than hers, and so having her calm, well behaved children here was absolutely fun, and nothing in comparison to what she will be facing. My kids really miss hers!

Okay, on with the pictures.....They speak better than I do.

Family Movie Night and popcorn! Dylan chose the movie, "Wall-e."

Washing their clone troopers.

CUTE!

This city stayed up all week, with only a few modifications when the Ellie monster toppled something down.

I was amazed at how long the older two boys would sit still to play checkers!

D and Logan froze a bunch of guys in their cups. They had fun helping them escape.

Dancing.

O learning how to block the hose to spray the water. He thought it was pretty fun!

Hiding out from the boy with the hose. :)

Water time! We had a friend over to play with us this day!

Always sticking out that tongue!

Ellie loves the water. She was so brave!

Playing rough.

Love the little face in the background too.

Hiding out.

Ellie held this pose for a good minute!

Dylan's favorite toy.

Logan is trying to get O to hit the target. Nice.

Loved this! I am not sure what she was pointing at.

Pretty girl.

Sisters.

Dia helped me with these. I laid down with the kids on my feet and she worked the camera. Don't worry, no children were injured in the making of these pictures!

O thought this picture was funny, so I had to add it!
