What Did You Do With The Kids?
It's not often you'll see one of us without at least one child in tow. Planning a weekend away with just the two of us might seem impossible. Four kids is lot - it's a lot of stuff, a lot of noise, a lot of food, a lot of everything! Not many people can handle that for a weekend.
Enter The Incredibles! With 4 of their own, they know what 4 is! Not only did they offer to take our kids, they insisted - way back when they could have easily ignored our plans. It was a great plan all around - our children would be well-cared for, and The Incredibles would have further proof that their own kids are angels!!
We dropped the kids off just after 9 this morning and they would stay until dinnertime tomorrow, when David's parents will pick them for the night and get them all to school Monday morning.
We didn't worry at all after dropping the kids off. We were able to concentrate on the race(s) ahead and nothing else! What an incredible gift.
On top of that The Incredibles even blogged about the weekend - something near and dear to my heart! I borrowed the picture above from their blog - reminds me of Eight is Enough except that Calvin's hair isn't long and curly!

It was no sweat - we'd do it any time! Those kids played their hearts out, and we barely saw them.
Don't ya think you're being a little over-the-top with the praise, here ? It was a lot of fun for all twelve of us (for various reasons) -- we already have it on our calendar for next year.
