Busy, busy week part 1

The last 10 days have been so busy.  I had my nieces in town for all 10 days, which was a blast.  At the same time, I was watching my 2 nephews and niece for 2 days because the day-care they attend takes the last week of August off to prepare for the school year.  Lets just say those two days with 7 kids was exhausting, but super fun too.  I was literally crawling into bed each night, begging for my pillow to embrace my head. 

Our week was filled with so many awesome activities.

Preseason football started and of course the game was on!  We are pretty excited to watch them full time this season and to live back in Hawk country....we had enough of those dang Arizona Cardinals :).

The next day the boys took all the kids to the Idaho Fair while us mom's prepared for Joey's and Myle's Angry Birds burpday (Joey's language) party.  Myles is a big Angry Birds fan, so we went with that theme.  Pics of the party will be posted later.  On Sunday we all went to Silverwood Theme Park which is only 20 minutes from our house.  We had so much fun on the rides and playing in the water park. 

On Monday and Tuesday I was alone with all 7 kids.  This picture is on Joey's actual birthday.  Bella and I made pancakes and eggs for the kids. 

I even ventured to the park with all the kids.  This park is literally 2 walking minutes from my house.  We go everyday. 

When Cory got home we quickly packed up the kids and drove 2 cars to Red Robin to meet up with Cory's parents and Kev and Chrystal.  Our party of 13 celebrated Joey turning 3!

The next days were spent at the river my parents live on. This photo is a great overview of where I spent my summers growing up.  My parents place is on the other side of the bridge! We spent two days jet skiing and relaxing by the water.

 Phew....that was only half the week.......more next time
