Summer Slumber

I decided to let the kids have what we called a Summer Slumber the week before school started. Phil and I let each one chose 1-2 friends to stay the night...yes, we had about 8 kids sleeping at our house. I know a lot of people thought we were out of our mind by the questions we repeatedly got but honestly it went really well. I've always said that if the kids have a friend over to entertain them it generally occupies their time and things tend to run smoothly, in other words they aren't under my feet begging (usually)! Ha! We all had a good time. I preapared all the toppings for the kids to make their own individual pizzas. I think thay all enjoyed that and I thought it was fun to see how everyone made theirs. Then they played outside for awhile. Later they all decorated a t-shirt. I tried real hard not to "tell" them what to put on them. That's something I struggle with but I'm working on it! Enjoy the pics...and yes, this is something I would do again.






I love these pics of Liv and Aub. They are so silly. They were so good and had a GREAT time together!!

I'm starting to experiment more with Photoshop. I still haven't taken that online class yet but it's on the 'To Do' list.

Those pics are really cute!! It's funny that you put this on here because just tonight Aub turned to me and said "mommy, Livie's mommy let us make our own pizzas, mine was sooooo yummy" totally out of the blue...so funny! She really had a great time! Thanks for having her!!
