So far, so good! Slumber party has been fun! It is 5:30 and everyone is still asleep. When the kids got here we had pizza for dinner and then we opened gifts. The kids played and Jordan and I prepared for the tree making project (cones, frosting and decorations). The kids had fun and made a mess. Riley is the sprinkle queen and Patrick won for most frosting on a tree! Was fun! Then the kids had a dance party, we watched the Amanda Show and some Kid Nation. After Papa came home the kids had ice cream. Joel and Karla picked up Maddie...she has a cold and was wiped out. Parker was hacking alot and his throat hurt too so gave him some cough syrup at bedtime.We sang Christmas Carols and the kids liked that. Getting them to bed was a chore. Riley and Lauren slept with me in my bed, Andrew slept on the couch in the livingroom, Dylan and Parker took the couches in the den, and Patrick and Jordan took the floor in the den. Parker just got up for a drink and it is only 5:30 am. Lauren woke up in the middle of the night wanting mom. Riley didn't move all night. This morning I have to put the turkey in and get some cleanliness and order in this house! Everyone is coming for dinner at noon! My friend, Jennifer is coming to take a family picture of us all. That is my Christmas present! Today is the 22nd of December and I am thankful and praying for my family most of all. I am so thankful we can be together today and I am praying the kids aren't crabby and Maddie and Parker start feeling better! Also praying for niece Kara and nephew Ronnie!
