The girls stayed over.
These ones:
We camped out in the living room in a teepee, eating popcorn and watching Kung Fu Panda.
We piled up a million pillows and blankets and settled everyone in for the night.
Then the littlest cousins broke the cardinal no goofing off after 10pm rule.
After separating them, Little Jo wound up with one tiny blanket and no pillows – because as you can see, I had been stingy with the provisions:
Itty Bit claimed the couch with George
And May-May lay sweetly sleeping on the recliner surrounded by spilled toys.
Wait… what is that noise?
No kidding -the littlest punkin was responsible for the seismological event.
Holy Adenoids Batman, that girl can snore!
We woke up lounged around in our pajamas – refusing to attend to frivolities like brushing our hair. But seriously, have you ever seen such glorious bedhead? The sheen of the myriad colors that grown women pay good money for, all lit by the morning sun.
A bit of silliness with special party straws. Because if Saturday mornings aren’t something to celebrate…?
We chowed down on the Mr. Daddy Breakfast Special of pancakes, bacon, and eggs; and enjoyed a bit of swordplay
Then Itty Bit realized that he ought to take advantage of the extra hands. Any guesses what game he convinced the girls to play?
Ahh yes, you spin me, then I spin you. His favorite game.
Did I ever tell you that my mom used to put me to sleep by holding me and spinning me in a chair?
Sorry, random I know.
Then came some true redneck fun… Mr. Daddy talking my sister into taking the Rhino for a spin:
You gotta love May-May’s rockstar pose. Ju is pretending she is not terrified to drive that thing.
And then it was time for them to go.
Itty Bit was not pleased.
But Mommy, I don’t want them to go!
(For the love of Pete, would someone please tell me what color his eyes are?)
Don’t worry honey, you can see them again soon.
(and whoever “Pete” is, would you clean the window too?)
Daddy making faces turned that pout around…
It was a good day.
And how was yours?

Today was okay. Not fun like you had, but not horrible like the rest of the week had been.
Maybe tomorrow, I can have a lay-around-in-pajamas day.
Sea green.

Seafoam, tourmaline, I know it is hard to tell. They are gorgeous though. They are like Blaze's. I know they are blue but they have so many shades to me it is hard to tell. One thing for sure, these two will have the ladies swooning with one look from those amazing eyes and a few bats of their killer eyelashes. We will be carrying sticks for sure.
I love all the photos of the sleepover. It sounds like a blast to me. I love when we have friends and family over and everyone just has a great time and the kids all wear out and sleep where ever their heads fall. So much fun.
Ok, I think the internet monsters ate my other comment.
I wanna come over for a sleepover & have Mr Daddy pancakes! That sounds awesome! And the big snorers are always the youngest - its true for our family too!
Awww I wanna sleep over... Sigh!
Itty Bit's eyes are beautiful, but even more so when they hold a glint of mischief in them. :)
We only get together with the cousins once a year, but it's a 2-3 week's worth of sleepovers, waking up together, getting into mischief together... I just wish we live closer to them.
THAT sounds like the best day EVER!!! no wonder itty bit was sad to see them go! i was sad to have the post over! :) ps. that kid's eyes are just crazy awesome! love it!
Could me and Lula Mae come for a sleepover? Please, please, please!!!!! I wan to have some fun with you guys!!!! Looks like it was tons of fun.
His eyes are absolutley gray. In my opinion. Although I am sure when he wears blue they look blue, when he wears green they look green. Beautiful!
The slumber party looked like SO much fun! I love seeing little ones sleep (and take many pics of them sleeping as well, lol!) Waking up to a big breakfast (made by someone else) is the icing on the cake!
Oh so fun!!!! I LOVE a good slumber party! If you ever make it to California we will have to have one..... spinning in chairs are a must. Bubba will be so pleased! wink!!
BIG HUGS
Girl slumber party? *sigh* It's been many years since I've had one of those.
Itty Bit looks so old in the shots of him looking out the window. He's losing his baby face.
your family is sooooooooo cute
slumber party looks like so much fun
All the pictures are adorable
but the smile is amazing
his eyes are the color of the ocean
i love slumber parties!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you are so talented with the pix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His eyes are definitely blue, but its a unique shade of blue... reminds me kind of like my sister's eyes. It always changes! More blue one day, more green the next. Itty Bitt is like steel blue. Utterly gorgeous!
What a fun time. There is nothing like camping put and watching movies. That breakfast sounds so yummy too.
What sweet pictures. Wishing you would have invited us over too. Snuggles, giggles, spins, a movie, and pancakes - what could be more fun?
That sounds like such a wonderful time. Good bonding time with family is hard to come by over here, too, so we take it when we can get it. :)
getting slightly caught up on your blog! Only two more months to go! LOL I am in 'recovery mode' at my aunts house, ready to go back to my apartment and just crash and wait for the 'i've been cut into once again' feeling to pass, and have partied a bit too hardy at Dylan's 3rd bday this weekend. We've had a blast, esp. him. Oh, and whatever color Itty Bit's eyes are, it is exactly the same color as mine: blue, no - green, no - gray, no - green....... That's what it is officially called. Now you know! :)
