So the kids were super excited to go to IHOP for breakfast this morning. Our friends Jon and Emily went along with us. And you would think they were the kids aunt and uncle also! Jon as you can see in the photo is just like all the men in our family, crazy with a funny sense of humor!!! (ok so growning up my older brother and cousin always joked about me and chris being adopted and/ or the sibling that was no longer there because they were lost, died, left on the boat, left at the nut hospital, etc, etc. So maybe Jon is a long lost bother!!! Just kidding) The kids had the perfect table manners! After we ran over to Sams club to get a few things. Jon decided to just go home and so Emily got in the van. Levi was so funny, he said "why is that girl coming with us?" And Uncle Michael rode in the very back of the van with Sierra and Zack. Needless to say i kept having to get onto the back row for being loud!!!
After our quick errands we need to do a little "company is coming sprucing up"!! So of course all this free help was totally used! Uncle Michael said that Aunt Tina needs to be reported for Child Labor Laws!!!! But they all did a great job. And we got everything done while Michael mowed the grass. So here are the kids doing their jobs. And yes that is a real vacuum that Levi has!
So after a good job cleaning everyone got to watch TV with uncle Michael. They had a hard time understanding that you watch what he wants. But they did watch a program about training a dogs.
Later we realized that we had kinda lost Emma. But we found her! Sweet as can be sleeping in the guest room. And Zack really was into his book that after story/quiet time he just kept on reading!
And then Uncle Michael and Levi made Tuna salad for lunch. Which tasted great. And as a special treat they got root beer and bugles. And Sierra is so much like me, we love tuna salad. I remember when i was young, i thought that was the best stuff.
Then after lunch time Uncle Michael had a few errands to do so the kids got to have Music time. Who knows maybe someday they will be famous singer, pianist, or something!
All that and it is just now 5:00 Pm. No wonder i am so tired at night this week. But it is all worth it. They are only young once. And they can be so sweet. I absolutely love these times that i get to spend with them. Thanks JJ, Chris, and Michael for letting me spend time like this with them. I will update if there is more later tonight.
