Sunday, May1st, we attempted church. After having to take Ella out a few times, I gave up. I left church after the first hour, and we headed home to change. We went over to my friend Jenna’s house to spend some time. Her baby was about 3 weeks old, and oh so tiny. My kids were never that small. Jameson played with her boys, and we ate bagels. We didn’t take any pictures this time, though. I think we were both too tired to try and fight 6 kids to take a picture.

Dad came over for dinner with us Sunday evening, and told us how he barely made it. He had let me borrow his nice luxury car (the race car according to Jameson) and he had been driving his truck. On the way over, he heard a crack and his whole tire was tilted inward. Not a good sign. Luckily, we were leaving the next morning, so he took his car home. Monday morning, he showed up to fix his tire. Ella and Jameson were very interested in helping.

He took a break from his tire to help us play tetris in packing the van. Let me just say, we are some awesome packers. By 10:00 am we were on the road and headed to Sacramento. Christina and I against 5 kids on a 10 hour drive. Awesome.
