Maybe I should have started my camping blog titles a few days ago when Robby left for Maumelle, but I'll start it today since I have not joined him. Even though we all were up later last night playing out game, everyone got up when asked today.
Of course, the girls were already awake and roaming around the house as I was walking through with my laundry basket. I hurried on my walk so I would have about 20 minutes to read with Whitman before taking Campbell and Keaton to church. Whitman still enjoys me reading to him-I even started reading another book to just him.
I took the girls and hoped that the big boys would go to work on their school work while I was gone-I was afraid they would be tempted to stay in their beds. Actually, I said that I took the girls, but Campbell drove us to church today, and when I did come home, all the boys were working hard (well, Whitman was already having a break.)
I did school with Whitman and then Graham. Once again, I thought that having the girls gone during the day would free up some of my time, but maybe since I made bread and muffins this morning that is where my extra time went. I was still running around trying to get everything marked off my list by this afternoon.
I had a super quick walk before picking up the girls and while the muffins were in the oven. If the girls had been at home, I wouldn't have thought a thing about asking them to take the pans out of the oven. However, the boys-not so much. Whitman is a bit scared of the oven so he is out. Anderson probably would be distracted and wouldn't hear the timer, and Graham would second guess himself on if they were done or not. That is all fine though because I probably need motivation to pick up the pace on my walks a little bit.
Campbell and Keaton once again had a great time helping at Mother's Day Out. Keaton talked the whole way home about her little class. I'm glad that they have found something to do that they really enjoy. It does make for a little bit crazier school week, but I'm good with some crazy.
Anderson had to paint the fields at Raymar, and Graham tagged along because afterwards they went to play basketball at a friend's house. They were able to play for a an hour, and then met up with the others at Nonna and Pops' house. Today is Jason's birthday so they celebrated him with hamburgers.
Meanwhile I went my class meeting, and then Robby picked me up to join him camping. We found the Wilsons and took the dogs on a walk. Now, I'm in the bed all cozied up with Bentley about to read my book!
