The Mortons come for the weekend












A few weeks ago Kelly asked if we would be willing to help out watching the kids for the weekend. She would drop them off Friday after school and then wanted us to drop them off with a babysitter Sat. afternoon until Meemaw got off work Sat. night. I told her NO, absolutely not! I would watch them ONLY if we did not have to drop them off with a babysitter on Sat. :) She said that she would have to talk to Jason about that... well she did and they decided to drop the babysitter.

We knew it might get a little crazy with six kids but it would be SO MUCH FUN! Kelly dropped the kids off right before 2:00 Friday and 12 minutes after she left Ben dropped a deuce in his drawers. Caroline and I had a good laugh as we were cleaning it up.

Caroline had a birthday last week so we decided to have a little celebration of our own. We had pizza and made cupcakes and had ice cream. We were also celebrating Justin's birthday.

After cake and ice cream everyone was showered and ready for bed or should I say the process of bed. Finally at 8:30 we rounded up the troops to settle in. We had three soccer games in the morning to get to. Of course they all started out sleeping together but ended up Jonah in his bed, Matthew in the guest room with a king bed all to himself and Luke, Ben and Caroline on the floor.

Finally everyone was asleep by 9:40, now I could go get in bed :)
