Times They Are A Change'n

The Mini's started a new year of school today. It was a hectic morning; sleepy heads on the breakfast table,  nose bleeds to see who can make Leslie faint first, overstuffed back packs that threatened to topple children over, "no way you're leaving looking like that" discussions...just the standard what happened to our summer types of things.  Me & John took the kids to school and walked them to their classes even though Annabelle assured us she knew right where to go. I brought my camera to take photos, but of course that would have been too easy, so I had to leave the memory card for my camera at home to mix things up a bit. I ended up having to use John's cell phone to get a few shots. Thank goodness we upgraded our phones recently or I might have burst into tears. I'm probably going to make them take more pictures tomorrow morning (Gavin will be thrilled) so I can get some better shots but here are the  "please quit taking photos because we're way too cool for that" shots I got today.

Annabelle ~1st Grader!

Heaven ~2nd Grader! (Yes that is a Justin Beiber backpack)

Gavin~ 3rd Grader!
 If they think today is bad...just wait till I sign up for PTA :)

5 Boys > 2 Parents Sanity I'm not sure how it happened exactly...but after several days of recuperation, it appears we have survived the boy filled weekend. It was loud, it was messy at times, and it was most definitely chaotic...but overall...I'd say it was a fairly successful weekend for Gavin's big 1-1. Friday night he had 4 friends spend the night & though I had a mini stroke over a legitimate offer to spray paint part of our outside storage area, the boys had a blast. Gavin is really hung up on  Guthrie's  right now so we started the evening out with Guthrie's for dinner & then John, begin the brave (insane) loaded all the boys up and took them to see Ice Age.  They returned home with plenty of energy to burn & spent the rest of the evening playing outside and having video game battles. Thanks to my saint of sister who kept the girls, it was a boys only zone, and was undoubtably outnumbered.  The next morning, though they were up VERY late,...

The Who's Who of Whoville

 The girls had their church Christmas Program this weekend. They performed at both morning services and were equally amazing each time around! They've been practicing for the mast few months, and all their hard work most definitely paid off.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair!
