nerf target practice

Amanda and Alex arrived late this afternoon.

The nerf shooters quickly came out.

Alex had the brilliant idea to set up targets to shoot at.

I don't think of things like that - 

seems like an obvious thing to do

but my girl brain doesn't go there.

After hitting the target a few times

Justin and I headed off to the airport

traffic was horrible

Amanda and Alex picked up pizza

Let Thanksgiving weekend begin!

Justin turns 6

He now needs 2 hands to count his age!

 The beauty of having a birthday on the weekend is that you can open presents all day long

We spread out the joy and playing.

 

Took this picture at 4:19 pm

Justin was born exactly 6 years ago this very minute!

Happy Birthday to you!

Justin still requests this sandwich.
He says "can I have my disgusting sandwich"
and I know exactly what he wants.

"The Enormous Watermelon"

he suggested the arcade

so we went

and it was fun.

Justin wanted to go see Puss in Boots

which came out in theaters today
