Date Night

We have a group of four families that do a babysitting co-op each month.  One weekend a month 3 sets of parents get to go out and enjoy some couple time while the 4th set of parents gets to feed and watch all the kiddos.  Well, tonight was David's and my night to have all the rugrats at our house.  We'll just say that the thought of having 9 kids between the ages of 2 and 8 running around the house (7 of them boys) was not very appealing to me, but I figured that was the price I had to pay to get a date with my hubby 3 out of 4 months...
Grace, Lily, Joeseph, and Brody 
Tristan, Zane, Kayden, Andrew, and Michael
We fed 'em all cheeseburgers, mac and cheese, and baked beans.

Everyone else watchin' Kayden play the DS.

I must say that all my anxiety about having that many kids (boys) in my house for 6 hours was a waste of my time.  It was a fantastic night, and all the kids were on their best behavior!
