Trip to Clinton!

The first weekend in April was opening weekend of turkey season. Hunting turkey is one of Daniel's favorites! We headed over to the Roushes house in Clinton so Daniel could hook up with Rusty, Michael, and Adam for a little guys' get together. Chandra was so gracious to open up her house to Shelly, Mendy and me along with our 6 kids. Chandra and rusty have three of their own so we packed 4 moms and 9 kids (all 5 years old and under) into one house! Thankfully we had beautiful weather and spent a ton of our time outside. Along with playing outside comes lots of sweat and dirt. We figured out around 6 on Saturday night that the hot water tank had stopped working. Awesome! Ha! We started boiling pots of hot water, just like the good old days, so we could give the little people baths. Us mamas just braved it and took cold showers. Ouch! We all had good laughs over it! Add that to our little bit of hysteria from refereeing 9 kids all day and I think we would have made great mental hospital patients! We had so much fun, though!

Thanks for a great time, Chandra! Oh, and the boys were 3 out of 4 for killing turkeys. Good for them. Ha!
