The kids are so ready to go back to school already and so am I. They only have one month left. Hopefully we will have a fun last month of the summer and enjoy ourselves. We just have one more vacation planned for the Fletcher Reunion & seeing Bachan & Jichan in Wyoming. The kids are not looking forward to the traveling part but are happy to see all the family. I have a few things surprised for them for the traveling.
Early this morning Paul left for work and I was up all night with Cooper and went back to sleep. He woke up at 1:30 in the middle of the night barking. When I went into the garage to check on him I realized after the nasty smell in their that he had thrown up in him kennel. So I put him outside and at the top of the stairs (inside the house) he shook off. There was little brown droppings all over me & the walls. YUCK! So I changed and got what cleaned up that I could see, knowing I would find more when I woke up, and went back to sleep.
The boys were up at 6:00 so I turned on the cartoons & went back to sleep. Right at 7:30 we had a knock at the door. Mom had remembered yesterday morning that she was helping out a friend and watching her girls but forgot last minute. Tati & Tajah were with us all day while their parents had to go to Boise.
The kids actually played well most of the day. We did have a few rough moments but who wouldn't with six kids. After lunch the Brayden & Tajah went down for naps while the older kids cleaned up downstairs for their surprise. It
was play dough and they couldn't have been more happy. Although they did get play dough in more places than I would have liked to have seen they were pretty good about cleaning it up.
I invited Kris & Rachelle over for dinner since they were traveling all day so they didn't have to worry about fixing something last minute. They brought cookies and we had BBQ chicken, asparagus, salad & potatoes for dinner.
After dinner Paul arrived so he ate and then Kris helped him start the install on the sink. I sat and chatted with Rachelle while the kids played outside. While they were working on the sink the two little ones climbed inside and Brayden kept saying boat. I had to take a picture. It was too cute!!!
We had our cookies & then Amy Labrum and her daughter Jordan came over to help pass out our some flyers. We are putting together a block party and thought for family night we would pass then out to all the neighbors. Paul stayed home and finished working on the sink while I took the kids all on our walk.
When we got home they got into the bath, got pajamas on and were in bed later than usual by an hour and a half. They pretty much all fell right asleep.
Paul didn't buy everything he needed to to finish the sink and I didn't do any dishes today thinking I would have a sink by the end of the day & a running dishwasher. So tomorrow it is a trip back to Lowe's to pick up stuff. It looks great though and it is so big, if you can't tell already with the two kids sitting it from the picture. I can't wait to clean the dishes tomorrow.
We watched the Next Food Network star and then went to sleep afterwards. Cooper wasn't happy since it rained most of the day but we left him outside just in case he got sick again.
