Last week, I went to visit Denay, her boys and her new baby girl Madeline. I was gone from Wednesday-Sunday (but in reality, Monday because I didn’t get home until 1am). Anyway…the boys had a great time with daddy who spoiled them rotten with “guy fun”. I was a bit nervous leaving knowing that Brian had to deal with the morning routine, getting them off to school, after school activities etc etc. The first night I was gone, Logan had an open house in his 3rd grade classroom. Brian and Logan co-authored a story:

 

“Boy’s Weekend: One day a silly mom left 4 boys (and one girl puppy) home alone for 5 days. BOY was that a big mistake! The first night went well and so did the second and the third, and the fourth, and the fifth. Gee, did you think we would burn the house down or something?!”

The story was waiting for me on the counter when I walked in early Monday morning. Very funny boys…very funny!

Anyway, not much really happened while I was gone. They did have a “video game night” where they started playing something called Castle Crashers. This was still an obsession by the time I got back. I helped Aiden and Brady make Castle Crasher costumes…at least there is still something I can do better than Daddy!
