Our "Busy" Week

Thanks to the kids we had a "packed" schedule this week... ...staying busy with the usual non-recommended activities of coloring on walls, tables & faces, and superfluous squealing between sibling squabbles, spills, and sprouting teeth in Calvin's mouth. We've also had fun clothes-shopping among the laundry...here is Cami modeling her mom's enormo-pregnant pants... ...and other important items of clothing.
...all while trying to keep our cool.
Thankfully we had a much-needed visit from Gramma & Papa who were in town for a meeting. Miraculously the kids were content and happy almost the entire time they were here.
So, in the interest of keeping the kids happy, we are sending them home with Gramma & Papa to spend a few nights...Andy and I were scheduled to meet up out there during men's retreat, but the thought has crossed our mind to disappear suddenly and mysteriously for an unknown quantity of time.

I am still giggling at your "packed" schedule. That is too funny. Although Cami modeling your clothing is a close second. Enjoy your break--let me know if your parents feel they don't have quite enough children. I could loan a few for a few days . . . ;o)

I can think of one town just west of the Pacific/Mtn Time Zone change that would be more than happy to hide you for a while. And on your way back you may take my son so that Sarah and I can have our "retreat" :)

All I have to say is, there's always room in our schedule for spinach, too!! :)

(oh, and dressing up in mommy's laundry that's huge enough around the pant waist and I'm NOT expecting!!)
