1st Sleepover

 


Brady had his first "friends" sleepover one day last week.
I tried not to take too many pictures...I didn't want the boys to be annoyed with me!
So, I took just a few to capture the memories...






We spent the afternoon at the pool.  I thought this would make the boys more tired...but not so much!

We picked up pizza on the way back to our house.  The noise level in the van was a little high to say the least...but I enjoyed listening to their funny conversation.  One of the boys commented on how much "larger" his head was compared to the other two.  They decided that a bigger head must mean you have a bigger brain in there.  They were laughing and carrying on the whole ride home. 



The boys had pizza and then played outside.  It was not Brady's idea to play tennis...just so you know!
The boys were in and out of the house....running around like chickens with their heads cut off...going from one activity to the next.  I think they were a little excited!  Or, maybe I gave them too much sugar?!





Eric made a campfire for the boys and they made s'mores.   We kept it short, I started to get a little nervous with the boys around the fire with their sticks and fireballs marshmallows.  Later the boys all camped out in the livingroom and watched  Journey 2 the Mysterious Island.  During the movie Brady reminded me about the ice cream and toppings we had bought for his sleepover.  So, there we all were making sundaes at 10 o'clock....no wonder the boys couldn't fall asleep!  Good times.  The first of many sleepovers I'm sure!

How fun, and I love that you captured these pictures. It will be fun to look back on these and remember his first sleepover, and what a great time they had. So, older boys can still be loud and wild and crazy?! :) I was at the mall with Boyd yesterday, and his 3 year old friend, and they were OUT OF CONTROL. haha.

Oh my gosh....the dreaded sleepovers! I hated them!!! One time, Erika had a friend sleepover, and I heard some noises in the middle of the night. I went downstairs to find the two of them had set the kitchen table, and prepared Ego waffles for everyone for breakfast. Cooked, buttered, syrup on top and all. On the table...AT MIDNIGHT!!!!! Ugh....
But they do love it!

Sounds like a great sleepover!! My kids love having sleepovers but we do not do them often because they are a lot of work.

Sounds like a wonderful evening! First sleepovers are always so much fun....do the boys squeel and giggle all night like the girls? LOL I don't think i ever sleep when my girl's have one, but wouldn't change a thing. Have a great week!
