This is how we HANG.

So ya I’m a little crazy by the end of the day. But in times like these I am soooo thankful I still have a job.

OK OK so there are two extras. Due to Rachel visiting. And I only have that many babies three days a week.

It’s My Life. AndI'm greatful everyday for all the parents who allow their kids to come to my crazy house. But in the end they are loved and have plenty of other kids to play with and will be well adjusted before they leave me for Kindergarten.

No fitting necessary

So the best thing about having an Aunt the same size as you. LOTS & LOTS of hand me downs.


Mandi thought it would be fun to see if her Wedding dress would fit Jenna. So If Jenna just gets taller she already has her wedding dress picked out, Chocolate stain and all.

Wii Do Run Run Run Wii Do Run Run.

It was quite funny to watch Brookelynn Run with the Wii. She sometimes seemed to want to run into the T.V. If you can see in the screen she is sopose to keep up with but not pass the girl in front of her. At one point she runs so fast her Mii trips. What a laugh best investment I ever made. She will be playing every day before nap time. She is getting pretty good at Yoga too.

Bean Museum

With the economy the way it is, and everyone trying to save money we wanted to take the kids somewhere free but cool. And what place better than the Bean Museum?

Jenna helping Brooke to see better.



Brady is the only one I could get to pose funny for pictures.



Brooke was a little Weirded out by the whole dead animal thing. It's like a zoo for Stuffed animals we told her, she still didn't get it. Smart girl!



That is one BIG freaking Moose.


And even a BIGGER freaking Bear. It was even a little creepy to stand next to him.

Too Tired To care.

It cracks me up that both Brookelynn and Brady have been found asleep like this. They get soooooo tired but don't want to miss a thing and refuse to go to bed until everyone else dose and end up with a kinked neck.

SUPER BOWL SUNDAY

Gary cracks me up he never takes the chairs always lays on the floor or stands up I'm not sure if it is so he can play with the grandkids on the floor or that he just can't bend at the waist. Either way it makes more room for all the food we had.


I'm not sure what is up with Kyle I think his hollow leg is full of food and too heavy to carry.



Kyle and Gina



Jared and Val.


Zach, Jazz and Mandi


Rhett, Andrea and Afton


The majority of the crowd at my house that night. Notice Jake and Anneli are in this one they never seems to be around for pictures. Didn't want to leave them out. Is that better Jake?


All the good food.

Super Bowl Sunday is the last Holiday of the Holiday season didn't you know.

We had it all Seven layer bean dip, BBQ Smokes, Sour cream enchiladas, A nacho bar, Chicken Wings, Cookies Cookies Cookies, and Root bear floats.

Jenna and friend Oliva's science experiment.

Jenna and her friend Oliva are doing a science project together this year for the 4th grade science fair. The project is about how soap works. It lifts and removes dirt and oils from your clothes and dishes. This experiment show an example of how it works. It is way cool and easy to try with your own kids at home.

Step 1. Pour milk on a plate


Step 2. Put drops of food coloring in milk.


Step 3. Put dish soap on the tip of a Q-tip.


Step 4. Dip your Q-tip in the the center of the food coloring and watch it explode.


Step 5. Repeat and the coloring will explode some more.

Super Brookelynn

Brookelynn is the most girly tomboy ever. Princess PJ's and a superman cape makes for a fun night.



She looks like a magian in this one. and now she will pull a rabbit out of her hat.



Watch as she leaps tall buildings in a single bound.

Music Mayhem

I know I know everyone hates it when they surf through blogs opening different windows with everyones different music it gets a little hectic. And that is why I took my music off in the first place. But I love hearing everyone's taste in music and being a stay at home mom who only watches Disney channel it helps me discover new stuff because i don't get to listen to the radio much. SOOOOO I put it at the top so you can pause it when you log on. YOUR WELCOME.

New Year's Eve

 

We had a New Years Eve party at Debbie and Gary's house this year we brought our new Wii we got for Christmas and played Gautair Hero, Tennis, Duck hunt & lots of board games. It is always a fun night with the Alvey's although the picture of the boys is a normal view of what it is like living with them busy with i pods, or laptops. is the regular secene for them.

:) Happy Birthday Zach (:

We had our christmas party at Dennis and Marti's house this year and we had a little suprise the Grinch came to visit. Wyatt didn't quite like that and Brookelynn would leave grandpa Ted's side. The grinch did a good job and all the kids were excited to receive gifts from him. We were also given who ville names. My familys names were Jocky Jenny Jenna Loo Who, Belly Dancer Brookelynn Loo Who, Brillant Brady Loo Who, Kite Flying Kate Loo Who, Zoo Keeper Zachary Loo Who.
Thanks for a fun Party Dennis and Marti.
