Believe It or Not

We had such a good time at the Palace of Wax.
It was our first time there. We took Daphne, Sandy, and Brian along for the fun!
There was a really neat mirror maze inside that Little Sam nearly knocked himself out in running for the exit. He will remember that forever...he hasn't quit talking about it since we came home.

I think the Fear Museum was my favorite part. The kids were all so scared, me included. Stone was trying to play the tough guy role. It was adorable.

The outside is beautiful and despite the crowd it really was NOT that busy inside.

How could Sam resist getting his picture done with Harry!? I'm not sure what he is doing with his fingers. EXPECTUM PATRONUM!

The Wizard of Oz section was pretty amazing! Look at the triplets. These three just kill me!

Good and Evil... Brian posed with Hitler. You be the judge.
Yes, he is carrying my handbag.

Awesome

In the Backyard

There is something to be said about the fun you can have right in your own backyard.
I convinced the boys to run through the sprinklers after about 2 hours of them saying just how bored they were. One can of shaving cream, a little football and two 35 minute sets of sprinklin action they were no longer bored.
"Oh there's nothing to do," Sam said "Let's go to Wal-Mart and buy a Slip and Slide."
I don't think so...Wal-Mart on the weekend with a 107 degree Texas day is NOT my idea of fun.

Of course the big boys, Big Sam and Brian (visiting from Florida) had to get in on the action! It's hard to say who had the most fun. Made these collages for the boys. Hanging out with Dad is so important.
