ADVENTURELAND

Our annual Adventureland trip did NOT disappoint. Although the weather forecast looked rough, we had the best day ever!!
Nanny and Juner were crazy, as usual. 
 Our family.
This year, Nanny and Papa made t-shirts with a number for each grandchild. Sissy, the oldest, got #1! 

Nanny and Papa with all the babies.
 The line up! Oh, Sammer!!!
Our whole family. 
Macker had been dreaming of riding The Teacups with Papa! 
 The balloons!

Criddle girls!
 
Cousins!
 More cousins!
 The sky ride with Papa!
Pure joy! 
Dancing babies! 
 Juner got called up onto stage to help with the world's lamest animal show.
Nice job, Juner. 
Wow, what a giant turtle... 
We spent about 2 hours at the awesome water park, as we were floating in the wave pool we noticed the sky was getting really dark. 15 minutes later we were SOAKED. SOAKED!! The kids wanted to ride one more ride. Some idiot employee was still operating the little cars so we let the kids hop on. He called my sister Karoline over as asked her if she could  ask "her" if he should shut the ride down. Karoline asked him who "she" was and he got annoyed and said just forget it.  
We finally found shelter in a large pavilion. We were all soaked. These pictures don't do it justice.  

 IT was still the best day ever. Thank you Mom and Dad for the fun and memories. Love you.
On the way across Iowa we picked our precious friend, Owen! He's spending the week with us. YEAH!!!!!!!

Magazine

The kids knows how much I love magazines (don't judge) so she made me my very own.

"She is Katie Murray. She has 4 kids. She's the latest super mom. Everyone would love to be her.She has great fashion style. She has 1 girl and three boys look out world becasue here she comes".
I think these are the adds..."Market  kids being nice just got cheaperkids bar of kindness just got higher".
 "Crime is: crabbiness bosiness and bugging SORRY"

Stitches + Movie

Sammer tripped in the kitchen and hit his head on the corner of a wall. I knew right when I saw it, he probably needed stitches. Blood was everywhere. Sissy ran across the street to our nice neighbors to ask if the kids could come over while we went to the hospital. (Thankful)

Poor Sammer, they wrapped his head with a bandage and waited for the numbing medicine to work.
Stitches time. He was not sure what was going on.... I love him. He got 7 on the outside and 2 on the inside. Ouchy.

Earlier in the week some nice friends had invited us to join them at the drive-in. Madagascar 3 was playing and there was a Super Tuesday Carload Special. How could we miss it?! Our neighbor hooked all the kids up with dinner to go (I know, how nice is that?) and we left straight for the drive-in.
 We gave Sam a little Tylenol and he was awesome all night!

The girls had an awesome spot!
 So did the boys!
 I'm so thankful for the way God took care of our Sam and still gave us such a fun night!

Zoo Day

Our dear friends treated us to an awesome zoo day!
Do these kids look excited?! 
We even got to see the new XTREME BUGS exhibit! 

It was seriously awesome.

Sammer thought he was one of the big kids.
 Cool, right?

Can you see how close we were to the sleeping panther?
 Dolphins!
 Perfect day.  So thankful for such a special treat. I love summer.

Summer Day

Scotty and I went on a sweet early morning bike ride.
The rain held off and we spent a couple of hours at the pool. I love summer!
