Visit from the Arringtons

We had our friends Ryan & Ashley and their girls, Kaelyn & Shae come in for the Nebraska football game and they stayed the weekend with us. We had a fun time taking the kids up to campus for the spirit walk. We had all the kids lined up on the curb (including Hudson who didn't want in on the "girl" picture) and at one point a couple came up to ask us what the deal was... triplets, Quads, QUINTS?! We just laughed and explained they came from two families but that there were actually TWO sets of twins in the bunch! HA...

The kids lined up to give all the players high-fives as they walked in. It was pretty cute and one player was sweet enough to reach in past Brooke and give Hallie a high-five as she was a little timid about the whole thing.


The 4 year olds.... one month apart!

All the kiddos. Hudson was less than thrilled to be in on this photo... what a man! :)

We had a great time with our friends and loved that they were our first non-family member guests. We took the kids to the park on Sunday afternoon and then mananged a wrangle all 5 kids out to dinner that night. It was a comic event at times...but as always we just laugh and think to ourselves... This is our life!

Carnival

We took the kids to the carnival a few weeks back when it was here in town. They had a great time riding the rides (the ones they were actually tall enough for) and even managed handling the rain for a little bit.

I tried so hard to get a good picture of the three of them before the fun began... I love this one because Brooke is super excited because she sees a friend from her school clas





This one cracks me up!! She looks like a mini-me with her arm propped up on the door and her casual hand on the steering wheel. Haha.



Here is our sweet adventurous Hallie on this ride. Can you believe she could ride this ALONE but couldn't go on the kiddie motorcycles that go around and around in circles?!
