Home alone: Part 1

It's been really hard lately to take pictures, so the kids recently stole the camera and took their own pictures.    



Michael is out of town for about six days filming, so we're having an interesting time left to our own devices.  We had a sleep over in our office with everyone but Sam the first night and watched High School Musical, which they loved of course.  I fell asleep to Andrew saying, "This is the best night of my life," and woke up to him saying every couple hours or so, "I miss Daddy."  So I guess it's not an ideal trade-off but we're trying to make the most of it.  

Saturday we built a fort, made Rice Crispy Treats and had a "read in" (after swimming lessons and a nap).  Then we ate corn dogs for dinner, and I taught the kids the Corn Dog Song.  

Today was Sunday, so we went to church, only a tiny bit late, and were later commended by our second counselor, Brother Cannon for our efforts.  Now it's nap time, and I know I will probably sleep until the kids wake up if I lay down, so here I am posting first.  

Three and a half more days.  We will survive!  It does make me appreciate Michael though.

  3. Having your husband gone is THE WORST! Brett just got back from a two week work trip to Alabama. I thought I was going to die, and I only have 2 kids to handle! And props to you for thinking of so many fun things to do with your little ones...I think I need to take mom lessons from you.
