Just another Saturday...

The day after the party...time to sleep in...time to relax and enjoy not having anything to do...yeah right! As Phil put it..."Why the crap did we have 5 kids???" Just kidding...we love the craziness!
Someone thought of the awesome idea to have the Primary Program Practice at 9:30 am on Saturday morning! Yeah...for the parents that don't happen to be primary teachers...not so bad...stay in your P.J.'s and do a church drop off! Unfortunately, Phil and I weren't that lucky. We are the CTR 7A teachers and were required to show up bright and early (9:30 is early when you have to get yourselves and 5 kids ready and across town!) Naturally, Phil and I were fashionably late...as usual. (We tried!) It was supposed to end around 11:20, but Paris had a soccer game starting at 11. (Thanks to Maylene who picked up the girls a little early from practice to get them there on time!) We ditched out a little early so that "Nana" could see her in action on the soccer field. It was a sweet game...and as usual...I have no idea what the score was!

Aren't they a tough looking bunch?
The sidelines...was anyone paying attention to the game?

Paris and Sydney...working out their next game plan! Seattle just being adorable in her car seat! She was so good!

Paris apparently having a great time!

After the game, we decided to cash in on some Texas Roadhouse for lunch! It was YUMMY!

Once our stomachs were at maximum capacity...we went home for a little mid day "siesta" (nap?). I actually got about 30 minutes on the couch, I think! Which just made me feel worse than before. (Why do little naps do that to you?) It's total crap. Anyway, we had just enough time to get the kids into their costumes and head back to the church for "Trunk or Treat!" The kids had a blast and we got to see some familiar faces from the Tolleson ward! The Fallstroms told us that they are going to be debuting some sweet costumes at their "trunk or treat" next week! Hopefully we'll be able to make it! If not...I'm sure Hilary will blog them! Right?
Our little Tinkerbell got to ride her first horse! She had so much fun, thanks Mark for riding with her!
Seattle and her superhero boyfriend Ryan! They have no idea they're going to get married someday!
Madison way excited...(shown with a chocolate mustache) about all the free candy!
Paris and her friends involved in a group hug!

Brooklyn, our little Dorothy, and Paris trying out a couple of games!

Boston attempting to knock down some ghosts from like a foot away!

Phil enjoying my new VZ Navigator on my phone. He was also setting up my Mobile email account! Thanks babe!

We always seem to have a lot of "classic" moments with our kids doing random things...and tonight was no different! I just got done making fun of my sister who was going to a "pig pickin'" as her ward activity, in South Carolina. I was laughing and saying that it sounded so "WT"! Well...30 seconds after that phone call ended and we pulled up to the church for the "Trunk Or Treat" Boston announces that he has no shoes! He was Darth Vader and it has those things that go over your shoes...you know to make it look like you're wearing boots! Well he just assumed you didn't need any shoes! Luckily...I don't think anyone noticed because his feet were completely covered from the top! When we got home...this is the disgusting sight we found!!! (Did I mention the Trunk or Treats are in the Parking Lot?)

Isn't being 7 great? You gotta love him! Guess we're the "WT" ones!!! Oh well. At least it wasn't during the day...so he could still enjoy his night. I don't think he missed a step! He was even sword fighting some Jedi in the rocks with his plastic light saber at one point during dinner! Oh to be young again. Wonder where he gets the tough feet from? It definitely is not from me!

I am soooo glad that day is over! It was a crazy one, but it ended good (eating lost of my kids candy!! :)

All the kids look so cute in their costumes! I hope it didn't take too much scrubbing to clean Boston's feet :)
