Well if it ain't Gramma and the 5 grand boys
for their traditional yearly pics.
The theme for this little set of goofy shots was
the brighter the GRANDer.
The boys actually did better this year than they have done in any years past. I'm guessing the growing up thing has something to do with it. Gramma
made this fun shirts and we suffered through this as usual.
again, please don't think these are meant to be of high professional quality.
they are just goofy fun pictures that Jon's mom loves to scrapbook.
I love them!
The next one is my very favorite.. In fact, if Brody's hands were down, this would be about as good as it gets with five little boys and a Gramma in one picture.
Kellen was doing what Brody is doing in the pictures before this, so Brody is copying him. Brody looooooves his cousin Kellen. It is the cutest thing how much he admires Kellen.
The problem is K thinks he is 6 or 7 years old and is one of the big boys. So he treats Brody like he is a baby. Poor Brody. I think someday soon K will come around to realizing that they are in fact the same age, and will be good buddies.. We'll see.
Jon's mom is an excellent 'scrapbooker' as I've mentioned many times.
Clearly I'm admittedly getting old and dorky, but I enjoy sipping coffee and looking through her scrapbooks.. and I don't care who knows! ha
It's fun to see someone Else's view/take on my pictures and its enjoyable to see my child and family in these nice elaborate albums. fun fun
And this picture of these three ponchos ... budz for life.
An inside laugh at throwing Kellen a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle 3 and a half year old birthday party turned into something we did this past weekend. I guess you can turn any event into a party if you have some TMNT party décor!
Jaxson was having no part of celebrating Kellen's 3.5 birthday... so we started just calling it a Ninja Turtle party.. But Kellen was setting at the table looking over all the party decorations in anticipation and Jon was telling him its your 3 and a HALF birthday party.. and Kellen would smile and get so excited. and was like 'I wish it was my WHOLE birthday party.'.. I love this kid :)
We bbq'd some chicken and invited over the family. There were no gifts involved, but we did have all the décor complete with ninja masks, yummy cake, and goody bags. There are a few pictures on my phone or instagram or somewhere of the party décor. I smooth forgot to get any on my actual camera. Too busy enjoying the partaaay.
The boys had fun terrorizing my house and the yard. ha
and the adults shared some laughs as well.
fun party!
We took the boys to see Percy Jackson II this past weekend and the night before we rented the first one so we could all get caught up. We're veggin' out watching the movie:
Jon: 'This is a pretty good movie.'
Jax: 'Yeah but its a little creepy.'
Kellen: "I like it creepy.'
lol
Brody and Kellen have a stay the night slumber party at their Gramma's house this next weekend. Brody will be in cousin heaven to have Kellen all to himself. Too cute
and whatever will Jon and I do ??!!
:)
