Sunday, the day I dread/look forward to all week long. It is nice to not have to go anywhere but church and be able to really get to spend time with the family. The not so nice part is 1:30pm church. Yep, 1:30 church people, also our ward house just happens to be 1/2 hour from home so we have to be leaving by 12:50 if we want to even think about sitting in the chapel on a bench. Well today we were awesome, we were all ready to go by 12:45 and made it to church with enough time to get a bench. I was so glad, I am so tired of sitting on fold up chairs in the gym and trying to wrangle my kids on them. It is so much easier when they can't see the kids directly behind them, also the fact that we don't have crayons rolling off the chairs onto the wood floor is great!!! Well today I passed out the crayons, and notebooks (after the sacrament of course) and snuggled in next to my hubby to listen to the testimonys (I mean who dosen't like a good testimony meeting?). It was so nice to just sit and listen and have the kids behave and color quietly and not fight.....or so I thought. I look over to see Elle coloring, not on her paper not even almost on her paper but on the bench cushion, with a white crayon (how else would she be able to see what she was coloring?). She managed to write a B and several circles around it. Once I saw what had taken place I did what any mom would do, I grabbed her and gave her "the look", she started screaming immediatly and ran to Tom(He's the nice one). I motioned to Tom to see what she had done and then proceed to take her out. After she had her moment we got a wet paper towel to try and wipe it out, yeah didn't work. Needless to say we are cleaning the church and I am going to have to take a couple of different things to try and get it out. Gotta love those Sundays.
P.S. Note to Self, when attempting to take a photo in the middle of sacrament meeting on your hubby's cell phone, check to make sure the flash is off, thus avoiding everyone realizing you are taking a picture in the middle of Sacrament meeting. (Yeah, I'm going to that hot place ;) )
