Nick and Heather Plus Eight, minus one

That’s what Maddie said when she found out the Hubatka girls would be spending the weekend with us.  Kelly decided to fly to home to Seattle Washington to be with her father who is in the hospital so we offered to have a weekend slumber party at the Dooley House!  The highlight today was attending a local fall festival.  There were plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained, the weather was perfect and best of all everything was FREE!!!  Here are some of the  pictures from our day……

Of course we had to start out with a dose of sugar for everyone…..

Then onto face-painting or “arm painting” in this case.  Maddie and Riley have adopted the term BFFL- best friends for life….

Pumpkin Painting….or for these two it ended in body painting

Audrey surprised me and came down not only head first but on her back….please no one can get hurt under my watchful eye….

 In this picture, Maddie is trying to show us her arm, Jake looks angry, Lucy has her vitamin water in front of her, Audrey has her hands clasped so nicely and that is Nick in the background with the video camera and Halloween bags hanging from it.  He makes me laugh with the ways he will rig anything so he doesn’t have to carry it!

So there you have it….Nick and Heather Plus seven.  And no worries our marriage is still intact!

  1. I can’t help but smile. Hang in there Jake and Nick with all those females. Made me think of Michelle Mann outnumbered by her 3 brothers, the Dooley boys and Dimetri. We had to call the 4 Neary sisters over for a bit of pink. Having the Oesterlings stay also helped balance things. These photos brought lots of warm memories. I am pleased to know that you are good friends and have strong friendships. Looks like lots of fun at your house!
