I was the first one awake this morning and went to town making muffins for breakfast. Now, I had been awake for a while since I had set my alarm to wake me up in time to walk on the treadmill. Now, I hit snooze on my phone long enough that there was no time for the treadmill at least this morning.
The kids woke up fairly quickly for muffins this morning. I probably should wake up every morning and cook them some type of warm breakfast, but we all know that's not going to happen.
We did our school work and even though the kids have a bit more spelling today, we were still eating lunch by 12:30. School went well, but it does seem like everyone needs my help all at once. One minute I can be putting away laundry after no one is ready to work with me and then the next minute 3 people are sitting on the floor around me, 1 person is calling me and 2 more are fussing at each other in another room.
For lunch, we worked on eating some of our leftovers, but unfortunately we didn't even make a dent in things. After lunch was just as busy as school-I worked with the big 3 on their Jr. Ranger book, then worked with the little 3 of theirs and read them a book, then it was time for me to work with Whitman on his reading book.
After I did the treadmill, we were soon all in the car on our way to Dairy Queen. Today was our last visit there because we have now received 6-7 Blizzards each week for the last year. We had 6 coupons and eventually Shannon gave us hers as well. So that total is around 330 Blizzards were eaten by the Dennies this year. The kids were a bit bummed because they knew that we probably won't be going back anytime soon.
From there we headed to the pool. I am sure that the lifeguards were wondering if they should call in reinforcements tonight. When we arrived there was already one family there with 6 kids, the Heltz and their 4 were there and later the Crafts came with their 5. We took a picture with our pool buddies and even though we were missing 3 kids, there were 16 in the picture.
I ran to Walmart on the way home while Robby took everyone home to start showers. They were almost all finished by the time I made it home. Everyone was able to veg out for a few minutes before bedtime. Tomorrow is our last school day Wednesday before Bible study begins next week.
