My chaotic life raising six kids
We had our annual pumpkin carving day today. Talia and Kayli went with Harry Potter themed designs and Aidan went with a Doctor Who design. Everyone else did their own face designs.

We went back to the parish festival today. Kayli and Talia went at noon with unlimited ride wristbands. They met up with their friends and had a great time. Dan and I took the boys and Falyn around 4 pm. We let them play games and then we had dinner. Falyn’s favorite part was getting her hair painted pink. The boys had a blast with the silly string they won playing a game. Afterwards, Talia, Kayli and I worked the cookie booth with our girl scout troop.
The kids has a blast at the parish festival this afternoon. They took full advantage of the one ticket rides and had fun going on rides with all their friends. They then helped out for a while at the dime toss booth.
Since my parents are leaving tomorrow, I took some time out today to take portraits of them with the kids.
Today we took my parents to the beach. They enjoyed watching all the kids have fun playing in the sand and the ocean.
Today we had our annual Tye-Dye day. As always, the kids had a great time. This year my parents were in town and joined in the fun. It was also my mother’s birthday, so we had a little party as well.
Kayli and Talia designed their own Hogwarts crest shirts.
Falyn did a heart design.
Jared, Riley and Aidan working on their masterpieces.

We spent the afternoon at the OC Fair. Dan and Aidan are in Mammoth this week with some cub scout friends, so they were not with us. We all had fun seeing all the exhibits and riding a few rides.
We spent the day at the beach with Dan’s sister and her family. Falyn had so much fun playing with her cousin Ella. Everyone else also enjoyed the day.
Dan’s sister was in town this week and we celebrated her oldest daughter’s 6th birthday today. The kids all had a blast!
All the kids have been involved in Vacation Bible School this week. This was Falyn’s first year being old enough to attend, as we was so excited! Talia and Kayli had fun being leaders and the boys enjoyed participating this week. At the end of the week they have a little show for the parents. Falyn was thrilled to be able to be on stage for the show and preformed like a pro. All in all, it was a great week.
