Family Week

-

Here are some highlights of our Family Week! As a family of 10, and siblings in different states (or countries?) this only happens about twice a year. The minis keep it fun and energetic- except for when it is nap time- that is taken seriously by everyone.

Nana an Popsie- they delivered donuts to our kiddie pool party 🍩
