This past week my Mom had the kids spend a few days at her house! They had a great time, they always do. My mom likes to take the kids for a few days every couple of months, she loves to spend time with them. She always plans ahead so she is free to play with them instead of having to work on things around the house. :-) This time she had some new games to play and some special snacks that she had picked up! She tries to keep the kids on my schedule so when I get them back they don't have trouble readjusting to life at home, which I so appreciate.
I took the kids over on Thursday and picked them up Saturday so Mark and I got a few days "off". It was nice to have a break, I'm always amazed at how much time I have on my hands without the kids around. I'm also always amazed at how QUIET it is. I don't even like to turn on the radio so I can enjoy the silence. :-) Mark had work to do so it was just me and Micah here both days, so it was REALLY QUIET. Mark and I went to Wendys for dinner on Friday night ($1 menu), then walked around the mall before renting a movie at Redbox and coming home to watch it. (We rented Date Night, NOT one I would recommend to anyone!)
All in all it was a nice time but I am soooo glad to have the kids home again!
