The Hall Kids Sleepover!!!

Wednesday night we had the Hall kids spend the night with us after church. Josh, Rachel, and Abby are Nolan's cousins. The night started off good with playing video games, board games and attempting to watch my Fair Lady. We were not impressed with this movie and did not finish it. Anyways while I was making cookies last night Josh was tossing a very small soft football up in the air. Really no big deal, I did not even think anything of it, because it would of been something I or Gail would have done. Well somehow it barely hit a picture hanging up in the kitchen and it fell down and broke. I was just thankful it did not fall on Josh. Thats all we need another run to the emergency room for stitches! Anyways the next morning all was well. Until Abby went to use the bathroom. Yelp, somehow she walked out of the bathroom not noticing that when she flushed the toilet it was overflowing. We did not discovery this flood until Gail walked into our Laundry room to find an 1/2 inch of water on the floor. He then discovered at least 1 inch of water in our bathroom and the toilet still flowing over. The water ended up in our back bathroom(not bad) and are hallway. Thank goodness for a shop Vac. We were able to clean up the water. However, I have to wash every towel we own because we used them up to clean up the mess. One good thing came out of the flooding. I got a really clean bathroom, and more importantly I was able to throw away Gail's gross electric toothbrush and replace it with a new one we had on hand. That thing was Germ heaven! :) Well the kids have now been returned home. We had fun and got two really fun stories out of the night to tell. And yes if you are wondering we will have them over again. They are great kids we are blessed to have them as are nieces and nephew!!! :) Plus Nolan had a blast with them. They are really good with him. I wish I would have gotten video of Josh and Nolan dancing to a singing dog though. Very cute!!!
