I am glad I only have 2 kids! lol

Well I survived taking 6 kids by myself to the parade! At first I thought I would only have 5 because Shae is with her birth dad but then I ended up taking Jordan's friend James with us. It worked out pretty well & the kids were good for the most part. The biggest problem was how hot it was. Because a LOT of people save their places the night before, we did not get a spot in the shade. We ended up on the opposite side of the street with the sun directly on us. Of course I got burned too, lol My face & the tops of my feet because I was wearing sandals. You would think that my legs would at least get a little color but nope, nothing.

The hardest part of the day was lunch. Amanda had sent her kids with money so I took everyone to Burger King. The guy who took our order had no idea what he was doing & almost everything was messed up. Besides that keeping track of who got what for 6 kids was HARD. I really admire people who have that many kids because it is difficult.

I do not have any new scrapbook pages to show you all because I have been very busy this week. I am trying to get everything ready for our vacation next week. My plan is to do ALL the laundry today & tomorrow, clean the kids rooms real good & leave the house all perfect when we leave on Wednesday morning. I still need to buy a few more things for the trip & plan out the food we are going to eat in the car. I really do not want the kids to eat fast food for every meal so I am hoping to have most if not all of the meals ready ahead of time. So if anyone has suggestions I will welcome them with open arms, lol
