Summer vacation has begun. The boys' last day of school was on Wednesday. Today is day 2 of vacation, and my resolve to have the kids watch less TV is already slipping. Zach and Pete are already fighting. Steven is keeping himself locked in his room, because, since he is 14 he can not stoop to the level of playing with his younger brothers. Zach has somehow lost his Game boy and was telling me that he has NOTHING to do. So, on came the TV to his cartoons.
I know, I know, bad mommy, but I have been getting things ready for our fundraiser tomorrow, I am going to have my hair bows there, so I had to get those out, along with all the stuff to display them. I am making sure we have enough change for tomorrow. The big boys are out washing the camper now, since we are taking that to the gas station with us - a good place for Zach to sit and play when he is bored, and a good place to warm up, or cool off, or dry out depending on the weather for the grown ups. Yesterday I cleaned the inside of the camper so it was ready, put all our signage, tables, chairs, etc in the bedroom, and made sure everything was put away - somehow if I sent things out with the boys to go into the camper, it all ends up on the floor right in front of the door.
Tomorrow is our last big fundraiser to adopt Zach and Molly. Everything seemed to cost more that we were told it would - losts of surprises. We are now down to just needing to raise money for the plane tickets, which seem to be getting more expensive every time I check on them. It sounds like the weather should be pretty good tomorrow - chance of rain in the afternoon, so our fingers are crossed for great weather for the first weekend of summer vacation. Hopefully lots of people will be out and about and in the mood for great chicken!
