The First Night

Today, was an interesting night. For dinner, we had fried fish, french fries, and homemade cole slaw. We ate in two different groups; the people under 18 years old and the elders. Making the food wasn't super hard. The hardest part of the night was actually serving the dinner. Making food for twelve people is nothing the same as serving for twelve people. For starters, there were a total of seven children in the house, all at different ages. By the time we all actually finished dinner, it was about nine. We either ate chocolate cake or lemon cake with cookies and cream, apple pie, or strawberry ice cream. My cousin's sister from Dallas came over and visited for a couple of hours. Getting everybody to bed was a harder task. First, we had to move the couch in the media room to fit the air mattress in the middle of the room. Then, we had to get to futon in the game room fixed for the boys. Then we finally got to bed. Today was a hard day, but the bad thing is that there's still two days left for their visit.
