Conference Sunday.... A Day of Rest?


Breakfast is Served!

7:00 am-  Gavin served himself breakfast in his room.  He must have been famished, because he emptied 2 super-sized, unopened boxes of Honey Bunches of Oats onto his floor.  I'm just lucky I caught him before he added milk...






12:30 pm- Aliyah and Gavin went crazy with the Crayons I had gotten out for them to use on their Conference coloring books. 
They tagged the:
kitchen tile and wall,
the banister,
the hallway door,
the hallway,
the TV,
the armoir,
the table,
and a dresser. 

Mr. Clean is my best friend.  


1:30 pm- Having not caused mayhem for an entire 30 minutes, Aliyah and Gavin decided to see what an overdose of Prevacid feels like.  They dug into the depths of the storage, found an old bag I didn't even remember having and ate all the medicine inside.    Poison Control is also my best friend. I've got them on speed dial.



2:00 pm- We evacuated the house before it became a crime scene.  A short drive up the canyon, and
Aaaahhhh......
I love this state.
P.S.  Listening to Conference in the car where it's normal to restrain your children is a blessing.  Nough said.
