Our husbands have been out of town most of the week so we get this BRILLIANT idea to get out of the house.... with our 7 children (9, 7, 7, 5, 3, 3, and 3!!!) and go to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. I'm sure you can guess what I'm going to write next.... WE WILL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN. PERIOD.
I'm kidding. They were pretty good considering.... but c'mon.... 7 kids all 9 years old and under.... what were we thinking?? And the place was packed! I think we saw at least 5 families that we knew, and everyone kept asking why? Why would you put yourselves through this???
All I can say is that staying at home all the time with all your children, well, sometimes it just gets to you and makes you feel like it might actually be a better idea to just get out for a while. So then you do and you soon realize exactly why you don't do this more often!!
Here we all are... even the margaritas didn't help calm the chaos!
I'd like to apologize now to all the people surrounding us and staring at us all night....
we will never do it again.... I promise!
And there's actually a woman out there who PAID to have 14 children!!!
TALK ABOUT CRAZY!!

Had a great time last night even in the mist of craziness! I was thinking maybe everyone was starring at us because our children were so well behaved and they were in awe and then I woke up. Your kids were great and I would do it again. That place was just too busy! I don't remember if we were even able to have a conservation with each other. O well at least we got to get out!
I know, the kids were pretty good.... but why DO we do things like that?? Like you said, we couldn't even have a conversation with each other between the "put that down!," "stop that!", "no!", and "sit on your bottom!!" Babysitter next time!
That's why I was a no show!(:
JK, glad yal had fun! Precious babies!(:
Yeah...probably not a good idea! Kidding - looks like fun.
Yal were so pumped about going I didn't want to deflate you in any way.(:
BUT I knew it would be a crazy...fun night!(:
Gotta lov'em
Are you saying you are smarter than we are???
If so... damn it! You're probably right!
I think it's great!! These are the times your kids will remember and hopefully you'll forget the chaos and try it again in a year or two (kinda like pregnancy).
Just imagine what was being said about y'all in Spanish!
And we heard a little of it in English, too! It wasn't pretty!
