 Waking Up in Our House Today

I woke up early (3:30 AM) and decided to get some work done in the office before our nine “guests” awoke.  I was surprised that Cerwin was already out of the house.   I knew he was driving truck (delivering propane), but he usually only gets up at four o’clock on the days he drives.

Later in the day he told me that he got an early start.  He thought he had the alarm set for 4 AM, but it went off at 2 AM.  He didn’t notice the time until he was dressed and making coffee – so he just stayed up!

Laughter in the Boys’ Room

They were sleeping on single mattresses in the room attached to the back of our garage.  That room is one of the best things we ever did to our house.  It makes our garage L-shaped, and gives us extra room when visiters are here.  When the grandchildren are here, the cars are parked outside and the garage is used for a dining room and play area.

The big boys each had a mattress.  They put the little boys’ mattress between them.

By 7 AM it was evident that they were no longer sleeping!

The Girls Were a Bit Quieter

How do you like all that morning hair?  Gloria and Jana got first dibs on the Nintendo GameCube. 

Diana and Jenna were watching High School Musical on DVD.
