The Boston Nantels in Texas

I'm way behind on posting because we've had lots of company lately. At the end of June Marc, Kathy, Marco, Stacy, Michel, and Max came for a visit. The kids hit it off right away, they were so cute together. It was neat to see Marc interact with his older cousins. And as the only girl in the crowd, Emmery fell right into step with all those boys!
At night the kids loved to read stories. Max was too cute, he would look at the pictures and just make up words. Michel is an awesome reader, I told him he sounds better than many of the 6th grade students I have taught in the past!

The kids had fun playing on the front porch. Marc decided to take handfuls of mulch and shower himself with them.  Emmery even pitched in.

Bath time!!!

Mikey went to get the mail and the three little ones just HAD to go with him :-)

Of course we spent lots of time at the neighborhood pool. Didn't take many pictures though!

One night we did a "blackout party." Mikey bought a couple black lights and we got some glow-in-the-dark novelties and partied it up. The kids had a blast! The pictures didn't turn out great but you can still kinda see what's going on...

Mikey is on the left and he is holding Marc.

Emmery is on the left and Marc is on the right. You can see my bright orange toes behind them!

We went to dinner one night and dressed all the kids in RedSox gear. They looked so cute!
