• This morning's breakfast wasn't as yummy as yesterday's ChickFilA. Anderson did come in our room right at 7 to ask if he could have the leftovers from yesterday. We groaned yes, however he didn't eat them since the bicuithad a bite taken out of it.
• We did our reading this morning-I have not moved up my timeline of when I want to finish our science and another textbook. I had wanted to finish them by February, but now my goal is by Christmas. Though my history textbook reading is still moving slowly.
• Graham and Keaton worked on today's school work and tomorrow's as well. Campbell started working on tomorrow's. I am not sure what happened because she just had a breakdown this morning. I think she got a little bit overwhelmed with what all she wanted to do. 
• We finished up all of the Magic Band decorating before lunch time plus Campbell designed her last shirt. All of this crafting made Anderson decide that he wanted one more shirt. I do have one more that fits him so I guess we will make his tomorrow...or the next day. Things are busy this weekend, but surely I will have some downtime.
• Grannymom and Grandpa came over this afternoon for a little bit. Whitman was happy to show off his cupcakes that he made a few days ago...possibly even a week ago. When they left the kids worked on grabbing their lunches as we did some afternoon ready. 
• Then it was chore time followed by a bit of finishing school. Campbell and I did leave for my volunteer work. She has been begging to go. My plan was to start at the top and take folks each time, but my bigs have no interest-don't worry, they will eventually get their turn.
• Campbell worked the entire time that we were there. We sorted clothes and put them away and then we bagged up diapers. I was super proud of how hard that she worked. She never complained or stopped working.
• Then we drove home for just a few minutes before it was time for me to drive to the other side of town. I just looked at the drive from one place to home to the next was a 50 minute drive! I took Reagan to her soccer practice-she doesn't have too many more before her soccer season is over. 
• Robby had planned on going to the grocery store tonight but work got in the way of that. He had supper for us when we got home. Everyone ate, showered and then there was a bit of downtime for most, but I put Campbell and Keaton to work wtih me-trip packing!
