Now I know...






When Phillip and I first got married, I told him I wanted to have 8 kids. We even came up with 8 names: 4 boys' and 4 girls'. Well, another family and ours have been switching kids one night a week so the other couple can have a night out without having to pay for a babysitter. The other family has 5 children, and last Friday night was our night to have their children. So now I know (at least a few hours every once in a while) what it's like to have 8 kids! We do have a good ole' time though. The kids mostly wanted to play in the garage on this night as you can see in the pictures. I love their names: Scarlett, Ireland, Aiden, Kelvin, and Evalina. Labor Day today! We planned to go to the beach, but it was cloudy and calling for storms this morning. So we went to a new mall we hadn't been to and had lunch and walked around. The kids shared a bright blue cotton candy ice cream with chocolate chips on top. Very disgusting if you ask me, but they liked it. You should see the color on the other end of the digestive system. Then we went to O2B Kids to which a friend had given us free day passes (it's a place that has kids' toys, rock climbing wall, blocks, dress-up area, kitchen area, and they have lots of classes {art, dance, science, etc} if you are a member). The kids had a pretty good time, but were really tired by the end of it all and didn't enjoy it as much as they could have. It was fun to be together as a family!
