Getting Ready

So today is the day that family starts to arrive. David, Amy, Jack and four little boys will get here sometime today. I think the first thing that they have on their agenda is to go to the beach, while I will be at work. On Sunday Alden's parents Lowell and Sherry and Grandma Park will get here and that night sometime David's crew will go back to Phoenix. Alden and I are giving up our bed to Grandma Park and we will be crashing on an air mattress on the floor for a few days. Tuesday, they leave to go to Phoenix and Wednesday we will follow. I have to find time on Tuesday to pack and make a frog eye salad for Thanksgiving dinner. At David's we should have more room even though everyone will be there. His house is HUGE! I have been cleaning frantically for the past few days to get everything clean and put away and attempt to baby proof our apartment as much as possible. I think I have been driving Alden crazy bossing him around and making him do things over again when it is not just right. I know that things will get dirty and cluttered quickly with seven extra people in our apartment but I had to try. I will write more after everything slows back down.

Until next time...
