• Sunday morning here and for some reason my girls didn't set their alarms. I made sure that the boys were awake-though when I went up for one of my "boy checks," I noticed that Anderson's clothes were not laying in the floor-he was laying in the bed wearing them. I couldn't complain since he was awake, dressed, and ready.
• Campbell and I worked worship care during big church this morning. It was promotion Sunday so things were a bit chaotic in the Children's area. I had the tiny babies and spent most of the time carting them around in the wagon. Campbell was walking around with a boy who was crying on her hip most of the morning long.
• Then our Sunday school class had food which certainly made my heart happy! There were even scones there-so I spent the whole lesson thinking about how I could get another scone to put in my bag and take home. 
• We had lunch at Grannymom's house-she had pizza which we have not had for a very long time. Then the boy boys rushed off to meet their friends at Pinnacle. They climbed the hard side which Graham said was indeed "hard." Then they rushed in and quickly to shower and left again. 
• The boys were gone until after 10 at a house playing nearby playing pickleball and eating. They had a good time with their friends this evening and came home and chatted all about it.
• I took Campbell to a friend's house for the evening after my nap. Then I was home for a bit before I left to pick up Charlotte, pick up supper for Traci, pick up Sophia, and finally drop all of the girls off at a party.
• I hurried to the Wilson's house for supper, and Robby had to leave next to pick up Campbell from her party-it was 4 hours long, but it seemed like it was just a bit since I was busy the entire time. Reagan and Ethan left the Wilson's just in time for Reagan to bring Campbell home and then later go and pick up Keaton which super helped out.
• The girls were all downstairs in the living room when the boys came in from their evening, so all of us sat in there and talked until almost midnight. I'm going to miss these summer nights.
