WOW!!

SO last week Jacob and I spent the entire week baby sitting my brother in laws four kids. From Sunday to Sunday. And wow!! Talk about a lot of work. The kids range in age from seven months to six. Needless to say it was a long week. But it was a great week. For the most part...I mean, naturally there were time outs and messes, but the kids really are great kids. We took them to the park a few times, and we also went to my sister in-laws house so they could play with their cousins. My favorite activity of the week was taking the kiddos to Cabella's. I had never been before, but Jacob's sister mentioned that they take their kids there to look at the animals. It was so cute. My favorite part was that most of the animals there are things you don't see every day. But the kids loved the horses! When I asked Dace what he liked most it was horses. Jacob and I thought this was hilarious. He could care less about the moose, the fish, the bears, the zebra. . .
One day we went to a park up in Saratoga Springs and the kids starting acting really naughty, so it was time to head home. Sadly one block before our turn, a semi-truck hauling an ENTIRE house got stuck on a bridge going over the river. So instead of going where we needed to, we ended up at Camp Williams. Four crying or yelling kids stuck in traffic and we had no way to get home. OMG! Talk about a head ache.
Another funny event was the day the boys found a giant ant hill in the back yard. We tried to find RAID or something to kill them, but all we found was gas. So Jacob and I lit the ants on fire. The boys thought it was the funniest thing! Now they call themselves ant bullies, because of one of their favorite movies. SOOO cute!!
Lots of other events, but these are kinda my favorite stories. I love those kiddos!!
