Slumber Party

On Saturday, we invited our best buds over for our first sleepover.  Charlie came for Zane and Abhi and Ella came for Emmy.  So, since Molly was with us too, I had 7 kids by myself all Saturday evening and Sunday morning since Zack had to work. The kids were amazing - I actually couldn't believe how well they all behaved and how well they played together and treated each other.  We had SO MUCH FUN!! Gosh, they have so much energy, so we did a lot.

We played games
Princesses and dolls
Backyard fun - sand box and trampoline and balls

Pizza of course

with peaches and mangos to make it a little healthier. :)



Wii


At bedtime, Zane and Charlie slept in his room.  Smith wanted to sleep there too - but he had to sleep in his own bed. The boys just chatted and giggled in their sleeping bags for 2 HOURS. They didn't fall asleep until almost 10 and then woke up bright and early at 5:30 am.  LOL. They loved being in sleeping bags with glow sticks.

The girls slept in the family room - they read some books, and were happy with their dream light and glow sticks. They fell asleep around 9 and woke up around 6. 
Pajama Dance Party
Smith was right in there with the crowd

Watched some TV after our bagel and eggs breakfast

Art time



Outside on the deck, we set up a snack bar with snacks and lemonade.  I got them all sunblocked and they played outside for a long time.
Then, Katy came up Sunday morning and picked up Charlie and Zane and we took all the kids to church.  It was a success. :)
Here's Molly after church and after her cookie.

Charlie is still talking about the slumber party. He had so much fun. Nathan and Isaac want a slumber party at Josie's too. You could totally handle two more kids :)
