Our internet wasn't working for some reason yesterday afternoon, and I was way too tired last night to try to fix it.  My sister-in-law brought her 5 kids over to hang out with their cousins and it was pretty fun!  They all got along reasonably well and it wasn't until about 4 1/2 hrs later they started getting on each others' nerves, which Linda was home shortly after that, so it was perfect timing.  We finished watching The Little Mermaid that Kaylena had started, then they played, we made rice crispy treats, they cleaned up, then ate them, played the EleFUN game, I busted out that long roll of paper with crayons, markers, and stickers, then a bit of outside play, then reading time, and group story time with fruit snacks and then one last playtime! It's fun to see Kaylena playing with her cousins, we'll never run out of playmates that's for sure! :)

I also tried a new fish receipe for dinner and it was quite the success!  Then it was off to choir practice and the gym!  I called Jason to let him know I was there and he said that both the kids were down already, so we called one of the youth to see if they were so bored that they would like to sit at our house with the sleeping ones and Jason and I went together!  The gym we go to had just moved into a new spot- so we checked it out, and tried out their "Fitness on Demand" group fitness room.  It was AWESOME!  We did a Kickboxing class that pretty much kicked my behind, and Jason did some free weights.  Originally we were thinking that it'd be fun to go together, but Jason faded out of the kickboxing class, and I was too pooped after that to do any weights.  So... next time we go together, we'll try to do weights together, and I'll do that class or another one another night.  Otherwise, we'd might as well switch off.  Oh well, that was nice to figure out before the college semester started so we can just hit it running.  His teaching has already started, but this semester I'll be working 3 nights, and he's taking the last two classes for his Masters, one of them online, the other an evening.  It should be quite exciting!
