It's a BOYS Life!

Posted by Holly Nelson on Wednesday, October 13, 2010, In : It's a Boy's Life! 

My motto for boys~ "If they aren't dirty, they aren't having fun!".....But this time they were having "fun" in my flower bed!

Pack as many as you can in the pool, then sit back and enjoy the joy they experience.


And if you try to get in to enjoy some time for yourself, they will all come at you like piranhas!


Take them bowling..a.k.a. "wear them out!" I love how Noah is teaching Luke how to do it and it's both of their fir...

I was still under our budgeted amount of $150.00, which is great for our family of 8. But, I am still disappointed because my goal is still $75- $100. It's just too hard...
