When Aunt Amanda and Aunt Katie come to town it's always a great time!
This was the epic bubble war!

A butterfly landed on Maren's finger!
So happy, so cute!
Memphis : )
Katie's kids have such beautiful blue eyes!
Mary had the brilliant idea to have themed weeks while all the cousins were here. The first week was Pirate, and the second Spy. We were in FL for the Pirate week, but had a blast with everyone during the Spy week.
The day of the big party each kid had to check off all 7 missions before they could become a true agent. The first task was Master of Disguise. Each cousin came up with their own secret agent name and disguise.
Rhett aka Agent Penguin
Houston aka Agent Three
Heath aka Agent Pirate
George aka (sorry... I can't remember)
Porter aka Agent Spacelord
James aka Agent Awesome
Boone and his cute mustache

These beautiful cupcakes were for the Agent or Death challenge. Each kid had a secret code they had to decipher that warned them of an enemy agent trying to poison them with a certain color of cupcake (note you can't see the color of the cupcake under the frosting) The secret message told them which cupcake was safe for them to eat, following the clues and choosing the correct cupcake would make them a true Secret Spy Agent!
They also had to pass the Expert Identification challenge. They had to correctly name the jelly bean flavor they were given while blind folded.
Aunt Mary taught them all about finger prints. They stamped their fingers on a balloon, then blew it up to examine it at the Identity Protection Challenge.
Expert Identification
At the Proceed with Caution station they had to successfully wash 5 dishes with out breaking any.
Expert Identification with Aunt Rebecca
Daddy and Uncle Pete manned the Decipher the Code challenge. This gave them their clue for the cupcake.
Houston and his finger print.
Aunt Amanda was the Master Agent who coordinated everything. She is super Awesome!
James Deciphering the code.
George playing Agent or Death! It was intense!
Rhett proceeding with Caution.
I love Wyatt's face. Heath is risking certain death choosing his cupcake! I think all the kids were slightly terrified of this challenge!
Julia's face....
Yay! He choose correctly!
Houston had to find the cupcake marked with the letter that begins the word Boat. His expression cracks me up!
So much pressure riding on this choice! He had to leave and come back later to do it. It was just too much!
He chose correctly!
Grandma ran the challenge, Eye for Detail, where the kids were given a sticker, and then had to go upstairs and find the exact same sticker in a special hiding place. Her sister called just before this picture was taken... That's why she's on the phone. But she's a super Grandma and can totally multitask.
In the end every cousin became a Real Agent Spy. It was awesome!
We had so much fun with almost all of our cousins. Everyone but Jimmy's (2) and Eddie's (1) kids were there! We can't wait to see everyone again! It was so much fun!
