Good Times...

I have all of the kids home with me right now. They are on fall recess, formally UEA. I don't know why they they changed it from UEA to "fall recess." I was probably told at some point why it changed but I can't remember why. Anyways...It is very high pitched around here right now. I have already had Monica and Katelyn come to the door crying something about Megan while I was in the shower. And less than 5 minutes after I got out of the shower and dressed, Monica was crying again because Katelyn stepped on her head while she was under a blanket. Monica stepped on Katelyn's stomach last night while they were watching TV, so honestly I don't know if I have too much sympathy for Monica. I know that sounds mean and awful of me but I hope she now knows what it feels like and won't do it again. I love my Monka but she is the type of kid that after you tell her not to do something, she will look you in the eye and do it anyway.


We are going up to Park City on Saturday to spend the night in my sister's, Karen, timeshare. Mike has worked 7 days a week for the last 6 weeks so when Karen offered it to us we decided to take her up on it. He wants to get away and go someplace different. And we are taking the kids with us. Call us crazy but you try finding someone willing to watch 5 kids overnight. It is not easy. The kids are actually really excited. Megan wants to go shopping at the outlet stores and Karly wants to go swimming. Monica just likes to go places and Katelyn doesn't care. Mikayla has no idea what is going on and doesn't care, as long as people keep adoring her. :)
