I am all of the above after this weekend. There is absolutely NEVER a dull moment when we have all the boys together, and this time was no exception to the rule!
My ever resourceful mother-in-law gave me this book called Kids' Projects for Rainy Days because she knows I am always on a quest for something fun for the kids...especially inexpensive activities! I love this book already! The boys and I looked through it and decided to make play dough. If you've never made play dough before, it's super easy, and provides hours of fun...regardless of whether or not the kids play with the substance as actually intended...hence Preston and Trysten trying to "jump" theirs on the trampoline!
Click on the picture, and you can write down the recipe!
Preston measuring out the flour...the messiest baking material on the planet...
I love the left over "basketti"...as he calls it...on T's face from lunch! He asked me to take a picture of him so that he could see it!
The play dough! The boys thought it so so cool! We made red, green and blue!
We visited Grandma over the weekend, and the 3 little ones had a blast playing in the pampas grass...It's 8-10 feet tall!
That's Preston underneath...
Sweet boys...
On Saturday we had a Family Game Night. I love doing this because, as I have said before, we're not just sitting in front of the television...which is fine every once in awhile...but playing games provides a chance to laugh, talk and develop some friendly competition! Not to mention learning a word called "strategy"...Ryan taught Preston the meaning during a game of Battle Ship!
Gotta love Candyland!
To end the recap of our weekend, I must share 2 of the moments I wrote down over the past 3 days that simply cracked me up, and further solidifies the merriment of our kids...

1. Trysten and Preston holding a flashlight up to their stuffed Incredible Hulk's eye.When asked what they were doing, Trysten said, "Trying to make him go blind."
2. Trysten, Preston and Carter seeing who could stick the largest number of "Nerds" (candy) into their belly buttons...and then proceeding to eat them.
* Come on....how do you not love that!
