Waiting on shrinky dinks!

(click here for today's pictures)

• I have no idea why my kids sleep late on days that we have to wake up but they sure do.  So as you can imagine, we had to really scurry around this morning but did manage to have everyone dressed and in the car with breakfast in their lap on time...and we had only drive about 2 miles before Campbell realized that she didn't have any shoes on her feet!
• Once at church, the kids saw all of the grandparents and then I dropped Whitman off to his class.  Since we were just having big church today we let Keaton stay in with us.  Now Keaton is a perfect little angel in big church but my Campbell tries her best but gracious she can not sit still at all!
• After church we headed to Dunkin Donuts to claim a free drink for me-large salted caramel hot chocolate-and it was delicious.  Then we ran to Target for me and Campbell to see if they had her toy yet but they didn't so we went right on to Grannymom's house.
• Grannymom had lunch for us and the kids had some time to play before we headed home for the afternoon.  This afternoon we really didn't do too much around the house-we did work on laundry at least a zillion times and finally folded and put away about 8 loads of laundry.  
• This evening the boys watched Star Wars-the girls and Whitman tried to watch it but they didn't last too long.  So we came downstairs and as Whitman watched his movie, Reagan made a bracelet, Keaton made a craft with her craft supplies and Campbell worked on her shrinky dinks.  After the bracelet was finished, we watched the shinky dinks in the oven and it was a hit!
• We were just about to play a game when the boys movie was over so then it was bedtime for my little crew.  We just have one more week off of school so I hope they enjoy it-I sure will!
