What a Day!

Today, we were busy. We started off the day on a historical tour of old Madison. We learned about the ghosts, murders, plumbing, etc. of the historic area. My kids were really impressed that a civil war battle was fought on there. What grossed them out was when they found out one of the buildings was a funeral home. It has huge windows in it...this is what got my kids...when the kids rounded the corner on the school bus, they could look in the windows and see the dead bodies. It was really interesting a fun. I enjoyed what a could riding herd on Hope and Will and the many potty breaks Hope needed. Very interesting. I didn't get any pictures because my camera's batteries were dead.

The rest of the day went down hill. Hope and Will were wild. What one doesn't think about the other does. It ended when Hope came screaming into the kitchen that "Baby Will" had flushed some stuff down the toilet. What a joy! Luckily, nothing appears to have gone done, but heres what I pulled out - 1 large pink comb, 1 2" foam checker, 1 blue baby croc, 1 pink baby croc, and last but not least a magic draw board. What Hope didn't tell me is that they both contributed to the mess in the toilet. Will's just the one that pulled the lever! I was very happy to see Jim today!

We did get some good news. Aaron is offically allowed to start a campfire and carry a pocket knife at Boy Scout Events, and Jacob got his 1st class. Nice way to finish the day.
