Happy Valentine’s Day – Thanks Mom & Dad

My parents so generously offered to watch ALL EIGHT of their younger grandchildren (ages 7 and under) and sent us couples to a show at the Desert Star Theater for Valentine’s Day.

The show was great fun…and as you can see above, all the kids got “sweet” Valentine shirts from their Nana & Pop.
We came home to a very loud chaotic house.  This is definitely a first for our family.  First of all, we’ve never all been around at once;
Second, adding two more babies to the mix makes it even more lively…
as you can see by my dad’s face (above) with the 3 little girlies—none of which seem too happy.

These girls obviously love their Pop, though!
Mom said they could handle it again…probably just once a year, though.  We’ll see about that, since we’ll be adding
two more babies to the mix next year.  Luckily, as you add babies, you also add a year to the ages of all the rest--
which can be good (for the older ones) and bad (for the younger ones who are now unstoppable toddlers).

I had to put this picture in of London.  She is at such a fun age!  Huge smiles and mischief.
(Notice her unloading the wipes)

  Happy Valentine’s Day to all my brothers, sisters-in-law and hubby.

It was a fun night.  Thanks Mom & Dad!
If you haven’t ever gone to a show at Desert Star—you need to.  They do spoofs on great shows…a good old fashioned playhouse…lots of fun!
