[click to enlarge]2. Nathan and Slade slept outside in a swingset fort. Pretty fun to get to slide out of bed.
3. I came home from getting my hair cut to this scene: Anne with her hair all askew holding her babies and a big mess of crackers and crumbs all over the table.
4. My Monday jobs: dust and vacuum main level, mop kitchen, wash backdoor windows, and such. I have really loved having this card system for the last month or so.
5. Nathan, Sawyer and Anne were all sick today. They stayed in pajamas and watched lots of TV.
6. I've discovered the joys of listening to audiobooks on my iPod while I get my housework done. It makes me feel doubly productive.
7. New clocks hung up in the entry. A bunch of our folk dance friends are coming over on Wednesday night. Of course, I'm frantically trying to figure out how to lose 30 pounds and get all my house projects done before then. :)
8. Dave playing Tetris on his phone. He got a smart phone recently and we both are in love with it. Technology is so great.
9. We had meatloaf and mashed potatoes for dinner. It doesn't look all that tasty in the picture but this meatloaf recipe is awesome. I found it on allrecipes.com which is my favorite go-to site for recipes.
Brown Sugar Meatloaf
10. Dave taught our lesson in Family Home Evening tonight.
11. Nathan and Slade wrestled all the way through FHE. It seems that the kids don't get anything out of FHE. However, I'm thankful that we've made it a routine part of our family life. I'll just have to have faith that they're getting more than it seems.
12. We finished the evening with a movie (Nathan's choice) and popsicles for a treat.

I love all recipes too!
How fun to see that you're using the Brain Box cleaning system. My schedule has been messed up this summer (because I let it) and I really need to get back on track with it.
Good luck with losing the 30 pounds and getting your house projects done by tomorrow, I'm so glad I'm not the only one with such lofty goals!
Love your clocks! From what I've seen in pictures, your house is just beautiful!! Come decorate mine, ok???? And Tetris rocks!
wow that's an early swim team. i'm not sure if I could get my girls to do that, ours is at 9.
i loved sleeping outside as a kid.
love audio-books while I work. the best way to fold laundry in my opinion.
