Family Movie Theater

Dad left for work this morning and the rest of us were going to watch our summer movie. Brayden woke up and almost threw up. He just laid in the hallway saying his tummy didn't feel very well. Mom couldn't take all the kids now. So she tried to still make it fun for the kids. Luckily the movie was on Netflix so Mom turned the kitchen into a concession stand and the family room into a movie theater. We had popcorn, juice boxes and candy. Each of the kids got a little tray and Staci even helped make tickets for the movie and treat.


Mom gave each of the kids a movie ticket and had them enter the kitchen. She took their ticket, gave them more tickets and told them to wait for her at the concession stand. Then she took their other tickets and told them the movie would start soon. When she told Brayden, "Thank sir, enjoy your movie!" He gave her a weird look and said, "Mom, my name is Brayden." It was so funny! Then the movie Muppets Take Manhatten started. The kids even asked if Mom would do a home movie theater again this summer. Mom's efforts were a success!!

It was Opa's birthday, so we called and wished him a happy birthday in the evening when Mom got off work. The kids sang him Happy Birthday and he was so happy to hear from the kids.

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
