yep! yep! yep! and yep! That is why we are gheto-izing the back patio with plastic on the windows! lol, cause that is a whole lot of peeps and it is chilly now in the high desert of New Mexico. We will have a fire in the fireplace and lots of laughter!
We do this about every 6 weeks, at the end of a week of revival (church meetings)! It is a great time.
I do 4 huge crock pots of cheese,(wicked hot, hot, medium and mild) have more simmering on the stove, and it is a nacho feast. Most everyone brings something and we party all night! lol
Ping pong, video games, bunches of coffee drinking conversation and little kids so happy to be out of the pews and on the trampoline!! lol
I love to have a household full of people!

My list was pretty long... then I came home from work and fell asleep sitting straight up in the recliner. Now it's almost time for me to pick my kids up from school. I guess those things will be put on tomorrow's list instead...

Some of you have lists that make me want to go back to sleep. LOL Busy, busy ladies!

big congrats!!! And that is interesting to know.....I lost a ton of weight and did notice my shoes seemed looser...just chalked it up to them being more "worn"...but maybe this was it.....cool.

I didn't get as much done as I wanted; DS2 was having a bad day, so some of the things I planned to do after the boys got home from school had to be skipped. At least tomorrow DD goes to preschool for a few hours and I should be able to get more done.
