Christmas Trip....Part 4...Mimi and Papa and 10 kids

My dad and mom got to be the "babysitters", so that us adults could go out together.  We went to a movie and it was so peaceful and nice to be together.  Sad that this was the only picture I have to document the fabulous time together.

Saddest part about this was that my mom ended up coming down with the flu and had to take care of the ten kids.  All the while, running to the bathroom every 15 seconds.  Sad!  Can't say that she wouldn't do anything for her kids.  We didn't know it was as bad as it was, otherwise we never would have left her there with all the kids.  Mom you really are superwoman!  In my eyes at least.

On a side note, I would like to mention that my parents are always so inviting about watching the kids.  They would never consider it "babysitting".
