Crazy Fun!!

Oh my! The RV small cottage is so quiet right now.
My two grands from Tehachapi arrived Thursday in time for dinner.
Then Friday, after golfing for Papaw and Kyle and lunch out with some friends for Madi and I, we picked up two more. Then just before dinner the other six arrived...yes...you read it right. All ten in the RV small cottage for 24 hours.
CRAZY FUN!!

After a dinner of  Tacos, we had dessert of brownies and Peanut Blossom cookies. Before bedtime, the whole batch of Brownies and the whole cookie jar of Peanut Blossom were as Mr. SS said "History".
Kyle, Cade Jack and Camy.

Lexi and Kobi

For the first time ever, we were not all together for Christmas Eve. The kids always draw names and write or draw a picture for whomever they draw.  The first year, they framed the picture and the frame was part of the gift. Now they just add their new picture to the frame each year. It's really fun to see what they come up with and as they get older, the pictures change and more words are added. It is the sweetest thing to see how excited they are to see who drew their name and are so proud of their new pictures. From age 2 to 18, it is still special
I'm not going to show you each one, but here's a few.
Jack drew Kyle a football. Even 6 yr. old Jack know his big cousins love of football.

Kyle used the computer for pictures and  wrote the nicest encouraging letter to Cade who loves playing baseball.

Madi's picture and letter to Drew made me cry...I know...what else is new??

Brooke drew Kobi a sweet picture.

After all the excitement was over and showers everyone was off to bed.  Amazingly, our RV small cottage sleeps 12. Just perfect for Mamaw, Papaw and 10 grands. However the two youngest went home to sleep and came back the next morning.

There are 2 queen bunks in the back where my sewing area is. The youngest boys started out on the top and Kyle on the bottom. The next morning when I woke and checked on them I found the little boys down with Kyle...one on each side...so cute.

Later while I was making breakfast, the picture had changed.
Cade, Jack, Camy and yep Emmy were watching Tarzan with Kyle on his phone. Guess who has the best "seat"
Three full sized TVs in our RV small cottage and five of those silly kids are watching a "phone"!!

Between doing hairdos, the other five are at the other end of the RV in my bed watching Disney channel.
Oops...Camy jumped ship and is in this picture too.

All this while I'm making breakfast.
What do you fix 10 hungry little(and big) munchkins for breakfast, you ask?
Well, Mickey Mouse pancakes, of course. From 2 to 18 they still like Mamaw's Mickey pancakes.
I think it's the chocolate chips, don't you??

It's a good thing it was a nice sunny day, because some of that sugar from breakfast needed to be run off.
So  for a while there was jumping on the trampoline.

And there was lots of throwing the football around.

Then after lunch there was card playing

and castle building in the sandbox. (Sorry this isn't a video???)

and nap time for the little ones.

Then before the party broke up and everyone went home, they all got together for a picture.

I don't need to tell you, do I, that my Blessing's jar got a little fuller this weekend.

God is Good!!

Life is Good!!
