Chaos

I pick the worse nights for picnics. We had one scheduled tonight for SNACC and it poured rain all evening. Flash flood warnings. We had a hard time deciding what to do, but I knew I could not tolerate a night here with nothing to do, so we managed to reach a couple of the families... got to meet Emily and Travis' new kids, had Kari and Mike and Ben and Anna over, and another couple, who probably don’t want to be named and don’t have a blog or kids yet... the rest we didn’t reach... but everyone came over and we had pizza... I guess we had a total of 13 kids and 8 adults here, but it didn’t seem like it most of the time. All in all it was a pretty good time.

It’s funny who demonstrated some of the best social skills of all... I won’t go on to articulate that, but some of the kids who are the worst at home were the most appropriate with company over.

Now it’s 8:25 and with Bart getting home at 2:15 a.m., we’re both just wishing we could go to bed, but alas, we have at least an hour before we can even suggest it.
