I am very very late on this post. But for the 4th year in a row, we had all the nieces and nephews camp out in the backyard. It is always a lot of fun! This year we started off the evening with an "Amazing Race" around the neighborhood. The kids were split into 2 teams and they had to follow riddles/clues around the neighborhood until they made it to the final destination. They had a blast and Pat and I were quickly awakened to the fact that it is hard to keep track of 14 children that are racing at all diff speeds. But once we instituted the "team chain" rule meaning all kids on a team had to hold hands and link like a chain, then we were good to go. They were only as fast as their weakest link:) Livi and Critter cruised along in the wagon and Benny in the stroller. We had to add a third tent this year as the family is a growin' so the girls got their very own tent for the first time. I love that all of these kiddos are all so close. They really love hanging out with each other.
Signing off until next year.
