Well today was the day of Achievement Days. I am the Achievement Day Leader for the 8-12 year old girls. I was making cookies for their treat and as the second batch was coming out of the oven some how it slipped out of my hands and *BOOM* there go my cookies. The cookie recipe only makes 2 batches. (Ahhhhh I could have screamed.) Ok I did scream. I only had a little bit of time left till I had to get out the door with my 2 CRAZY kids. Every mom knows how it goes when you are trying to rush somewhere. IT NEVER GOES RIGHT! So finally I grab my 12 cookies that didn't hit the floor and I cut up 3 oranges and there is their treat. So I finish up with Achievement Days and head over to the store because I have to get some baby food and cornmeal.
So here I am at the grocery store trying to hurry and of all carts I get the one that makes the most noise with the crazy wheel. Cooper is up front in the seat and Dillon is standing on the cart hanging on. All of a sudden the cart goes crazy on it's one wheel and Dillon starts laughing HYSTERICALLY. He thinks the noise and vibration of the cart is so funny. He is laughing so hard OUT LOUD. I smile the first time he does it and just tell him to quiet down. I mean it is echoing through the store and EVERYONE is looking at us. Of course this happens like a billion times as I'm TRYING so hard to hurry and find the stinkin' cornmeal. So as we are walking around this happens a couple more times and it is actually turning out to be pretty funny because how Dillon is laughing about this was so funny. I start to laugh out loud because Dillon is just crackin' me up over such a small thing. I WISH I could have had this on video because just writing it down doesn't even show how funny it was. So once I finally made it home and finished up dinner we went to .....
walk Lake Gregory.The lake is maybe 1 minute from our house. Dillon loves the lake. So we walked all the way around the lake 2.5 miles. It was a good outing with the family and the lake was just sooo beautiful and it always is. Every time we go to the lake we always say "Isn't this so beautiful." So this is my ending to a CRAZY day. Next time I will take some pretty pictures of the lake.

I guess this week wasn't the best for moms. At least you bring treats to activity days. I am also the leader and they are lucky to get treats. How many girls do you have? We have around 20.
I feel your stress!! I have had those kind of days. I love that your kids helped you to laugh!! I have trouble staying mad or stressed when my kids are just being goofy kids. I think they know when I am stressed and I need them to help me smile!
