.january 17-23.

Sunday morning I got a call to meet a member of the Bishopric early that morning. I was released from being the Achievement Day leader and put in as a Den leader of the Bears. It was bittersweet, I LOVED working with the girls and adored my other leaders, but I was in that calling for too long anyway and I'm excited to be doing something new. Scouts is foreign territory for me...but something I need to start getting involved with seeing TJ will be a Wolf next year!

We tended my niece Katy for the weekend while my Sister was out of town. She stayed Sunday night to Tuesday morning.

The kids were off for the holiday Monday and my friend Emily and I made plans to take them to the Hill Airforce museum.

So began my adventures with 4 children. It actually went surprisingly well. I called Josh and told him this 4 kid thing was easy! :)

The boys were good to help but mostly I pushed both strollers myself.

They boys each took turns with my camera taking pictures. It worked well because my hands were pretty full. Here's a self portrait by Gage.

I think we documented every single square inch of the building. Between the two of the they took over 200 pictures!

This gem of Gage though was my very favorite!

most everything else looked something like this...

I did manage to steal the camera back for a few shots with people in it.

all 4 of mine.

and a shot of all 9 kids together.






After the museum it was off to McDonalds for lunch.

cute! We need to go to HAFB museum. It looked like the one in Dayton OH, which was awesome. BTW, they tried to give me the same calling, but when the primary president found out my work schedule, she gave me an out. I just couldn't do it in the evenings. I love seeing your adventures though. Your kids are too cute and your little girl is so grown up!!!!

How fun! My kid's have been there but I haven't been there yet, I know crazy. How's the new calling? I always say that is one of the callings I don't want because I know nothing about scouts, but I guess with 2 boys almost that age, I am about to learn, right?
