Celebrating Grannymom's Birthday!

• We didn't lay around too long this morning because Sunday mornings are fairly busy around here.  The kids were ready quickly-I think because they were anxious to dig into their honey buns.  I was scrambling around this morning but we all made it to church on time with all of our shoes.
• After church, Campbell was telling Keaton about her Bible story.  She was having Keaton repeat the names of the 2 people in the story "Adam-am" and "Eve."  I eventually questioned her about what she was saying and then she said it "Adam-am Eve."  I guess when we say "Adam and Eve" she hears Adamam.    
• We had lunch at Dana's house to celebrate Grannymom's birthday.  Dana had fajitas and the kids loved the entire meal.  As did Whitman, who was completely covered in beans-and then spit up his beans all afternoon.  
• The kids jumped on the trampoline and all enjoyed dress up.  Oh, poor Whitman didn't enjoy dress up.  Anderson wore Cash's warewolf costume and it terrified that child.  Terrified poor Whitman.  I won't be surprised if that child wakes screaming tonight.  
• After Dana's house, we ran to Walmart for a bit.  We have been running out of ice cream truck ice cream so Robby ran in to buy some more.  He volunteered to run in because he knew I wouldn't buy as much ice cream as he would.  I, though, enjoyed watching the police take folks out of the store in handcuffs.
• We only had a bit of time at home this afternoon.  Keaton and Whitman continued their naps from the car and the others watched one movie.  Robby and I unloaded the car, emptied the dishwasher and made supper for the car on the way home tonight.
• Then we loaded up and headed back to church-we made it to church on time but Keaton didn't have her shoes this trip.  (2/3rds of the kids were wearing shoes so that was still a win and 100% had socks!) Choir was for the big 3 while Campbell went with us to the library for a cookie.  Then she went to class and the rest of us went to church.  On the way home, we did pass out that supper which was gobbled down.  
• Back at home, everyone sat down in their pjs for ice cream truck and they were delighted with all of their many choices.  Anderson was wheezing a bit tonight so he was given some medicine and Keaton was too talkative tonight so she went to the bonus room briefly but then we put her back in her bed-we will see if she lasts up there!
