We are busy people

They arrived at 11am. I am out numbered, three to one.

These are the things we have accomplished and it's barely 2pm.

• Lunch
• Played a counting game
• Danced in the kitchen
• Baked cookies
• Put away two loads of laundry
• Played in the basement

Now we are on our way outside to clean the car! Free labor. : )

OK, no free labor, they just played in the snow. They were soaking wet when we came in, but clean. Just tossed it all in the dryer. The big kids came home full of energy. The noise level went up and everyone ran crazy for about 10 minutes. I am slowly losing steam though. Think we will scrap the make your own pizza and I will just do it. Lost motivation to include them after making cinnamon rolls and brownie cookies. They are all content playing together.

Maybe we will save Bingo for tomorrow.

Pizza was a success. School kids are supposed to keep track of reading minutes, E is the only one who read tonight. This will be the first night the boys miss. Maybe I can still motivate them.

In lite of their parents being at a hotel, this game is popular. Everyone made up their own bed. We used a dolphin blanket for the pool. I heard Five mention taking off their shirts. I said there will be no taking off of shirts. I heard him then say to his fellow boys "We will look like babies with shirts on and no muscles showing." Yeah. Because he is so buff. Now they are all downstairs playing hotel. Six was all over setting up food areas to serve free breakfast. LOL Less than an hour and we can get pj's on and a movie.
