Summer Vaca..Day 2

So, I have decided already that I DO NOT like to work when the kids are out of school. By 8:3o, the time I knew they would be up...I was wanting to be home :(

This morning, Paige did another work out in the pool and took Mia...they had fun. Kain stayed home and played on the computer. Carter got up this morning and went to the gym and then hung out with Jackson until I got off of work.

After work, I grabbed Carter and the five of us headed to Cody. I had to work out and the kids were hungry, so Paige took them all to eat and to ice cream while I trained with Jess. We went to Wal-Mart and did some shopping. It was so nice to just be together...if only for a bit.

Tonight Mia was invited by Madison to go to story time at the library in her PJ's, Kain went to Dylans, Carter went to the gym, Paige went to a friends..what the heck! I made myself go the gym and now 50% of my kids are back. I don't think I will ever get used to the idea of them being gone..If I could freeze time and keep them with me, I WOULD!!!

We decided with the Thorington's kids that this was going to be the BEST SUMMER EVER! We have decided to decorate a shoe box and it is going to hold our most cherished summer memories. We decided that on every adventure we go on, we will collect one thing from that day (a rock, a treasure, anything) and we will write on the back of it so we can look back at then end of the summer and smile at all our adventures. My plan is to take pictures of all the activities and help them do an album at the end of the summer. I already failed because we went to Buffalo Bill and threw rocks in the lake, and they waded in the pond yesterday...but from now on..I am ON IT...maybe kinda sorta.

Tomorrow, I am going to try to clean my house AND do some laundry since it is slim pickings on the clothing right now! I need to finish filling out paperwork and registrations for activities (this will all happen after I sleep in-hooray for me). Hopefully we can make a few memories and maybe, if we are lucky, I will document some of it.
