The kids didn’t waste anytime getting to the toys.  They hopped up out of bed, dressed, and ran for the toys.  After we painted, created a giant disaster, and attempted to clean the Little Miss we are sharing toys with asked,

“I can’t remember. Are you guys going to stay here forever?” Me - “Do you want us to?” “Oh yes!” We spent the rest of the day painting, making and destroying forts, wrestling a little, reading, and running through the kid wash.  After dinner we headed to Lamberts – Home of the Thrown Rolls!

Thank goodness we only go to Lambert’s once a year. Cody literally licked the sorghum off of the hot rolls. Not a nutritionally sound meal, but great memories with friends.  Brooke caught her own rolls for the first time.  The first roll catch was great.  The second one was a little hot and landed in my arms after she caught it. A Lambert’s visit would not be complete without balloons and watching the train over our heads.

After I read to the kids and they finally stopped rolling around I enjoyed rubbing the kids’ heads and backs until they fell asleep on me.  At home this doesn’t always work because I usually fall asleep before they do.  Since the start of summer I have been staying up later and sleeping in longer.  The summer time hours are sneaking in.  I slept in until almost seven today.  That may not seem late, but it is compared to my usual school time of 4:30. Scott and Ed were up late laughing and remembering.
