Spoiler Alert—but honestly, this episode aired on Thanksgiving so you likely know now. I did wait for you though! 🤣 Watching Stranger Things with my boys through the years has been so fun. A show we all enjoy is a rarity given our ages and interests and this show….sigh. I miss it already. Enjoy watching/hearing me, my 11 and 13 year old react to Stranger Things season 5, episode 4. Xoxo #strangerthings #thecolvin5 #kidsoftiktok #MomsofTikTok #strangerthingsseason5

Cohen had one job. One. 🤣 To ensure the tree wasn’t too tall for the living room. He figured once it was cut it didn’t matter anyway. Which he’s kind of right. But so freaking funny. I love my family. 🤣🤣🤣🎄🎅🏼❤️ #christmas #christmastree #griswoldfamilychristmas #thecolvin5 #family

For those who don’t know, I have 3 kids. 2 who enjoy playing basketball in my driveway. (Insert your gasp!) Our neighbor’s fence is very close to the property line and on occasion the ball goes over. The horror, I know. They will not let the kids in the yard, which is no problem. We don’t want to go in their yard—but we do want the ball back when they are able to give them back. They have attempted knocking on their door to get the ball, they have tried using a pool net to grab the balls, and other creative ways (think Sandlot the movie). Last month, my neighbors held their basketball for over a week in their garage before giving it back. It’s just who they are. So yesterday was the last day of school and our 10 year old had friends over. Naturally, a basketball and football go over. They went over to ask to grab the ball, rang the doorbell and the neighbor yelled at them through the doorbell to go away and get off her property. I simply asked the kids to leave the balls, ignore the neighbor and keep playing. Moments later, she’s interrupting my party to demand to talk to me. While i am clearly hosting a party. And…here ya go. This is what I deal with. But I am loving the fact that it’s recorded. LOVING. And don’t worry—I am unbothered. She doesn’t phase me at all. But I find so much joy in capturing this to share. 🤣🤷‍♀️❤️ UPDATE: After this incident, I left for the high school graduation. Party kept going with my husband and sister holding it down. One of the kids from the party called the police unbeknownst to the adults, as my neighbor began recording them (minors!) from her window (kids in my driveway just playing). And they all wanted the balls. So…police arrive. Husband is mortified. Sister is troubleshooting. Officers get our balls back and neighbors are pissed. One hell of an end of school year celebration. The funniest part to me were my 3 kids telling each other “Mom is going to be so mad when she gets home.” Mom wasn't mad—not the ideal situation but karma is rocking when a 10 year old thinks your behavior is bad enough to call the police.🤣 #neighbors #karen #kidsbelike #kids #kidsoftiktok #basketball #igotchu #girl #summer #lastdayofschool

Loving this time of year. 🎃 Reposting a favorite from last year.

This was years ago but still has me cracking up. A few things to note: 1. This was after 2 hours of snuggles, laying in bed with him, multiple attempts at a “normal” toddler bedtime. So, my patience is gone. 2. Taco is our cat and Charlie’s favorite creature. 3. This was right after Christmas and a long road trip, hence the mess in the background. 4. This adorable human absolutely put us into baby-making retirement. Strong-willed child from day one. #thecolvin5 #clubcolvin #colvinchaos #strongwilledchild #toddlersoftiktokfyp #bossofthefamily #kids

Thanks for the memories, 2022z 🍾❤️😘 #thecolvin5 #clubcolvin #colvinchaos #2022

You can’t make this up. “Let’s get out of this area and change our mood.” 🤣🎄🙄🎄 One hour later, we found our tree. That’s likely too tall for our house but that’s a story for another day. 🎄🎄🎄#thecolvin5 #clubcolvin #colvinchaos #familychristmastree #christmastree #familyfun

Cioci Lindsay’s pep talk while finding our tree. Hanger was beginning to impact decision making. 🤣🎄🤣🎄 #thecolvin5 #clubcolvin #colvinchaos #familychristmastree #christmastree #familyfun #hangry

Earlier today my husband told me this is one of the days of the year that I scare our entire family—family photo day. 📸 Here is Ian and his family photo pep talk for the boys. 🤣🤣 #thecolvin5 #clubcolvin #familypictures #familyfun #photoshoot

My little man has decided to take up skateboarding. I love watching him learn and not be afraid of falling or failing and just embracing this adventure. Kids can teach us so much. ❤️🛹❤️#clubcolvin #thecolvin5 #skateboarding #kidsoftiktok

Someone is eager for Halloween. This kiddo is always dancing. And yes—we had to buy the mummy. One-despite Charlie’s need for all 4. 🤣🎃🧡👻#clubcolvin #thecolvin5 #kidsoftiktok #halloween

About a week after we moved into our first home, we discover a bat. “Who do we call?” “Gotta put my wine down. 🤣🦇😭🤣🦇😭#clubcolvin #batman #bat #thecolvin5 #newhomeowners
