6th Anniversary Dinner

Since our Anniversary was on a Saturday night and we had all four of the girls at home with us we decided to stay in and celebrate (we had afterall gone on our little Stillwater getaway just the weekend before).  the girls wanted to set the table and help with the food.  They did a great job and were so proud of themselves!  they are VERY creative with heart candles, paper flowers and EVEN an itunes playlist all ready for us (that last one was all Adler and it couldn't have been more perfect!!)  We closed the dining room doors (the girls and dogs were in the living room right next to us), dimmed the lights, and started eating our steak, salad, and twice baked potatoes.  Not JOKING- about 2 minutes into the food the baby started BAWLING (the kind that isn't going to stop until her mama is holding her) and one of the other girls came in to "ask us a question" in the meantime letting one of the dogs into the dining room (notice Mosely under the table at my feet in the second pic?)  We tried to let Paisley cry for a few minutes but she just wasn't happy.  So I ended up holding her while trying eat (Heath cut my steak for me--awww!) with a dog at my feet and three other little girls coming into the room every two minutes!!!  I just had to laugh at us thinking we could have a nice quiet dinner with 4 kiddos and 2 dogs!!  I just kept thinking of that Phil Vasser song (we love us some PHIL!!) Just Another Day in Paradise...it just fits our life to a "t."  .....I wouldn't change it for anything and I ask the Lord every night, for just another day in paradise....
