Back from the Cabin with MIL and all the kids!
Well we had a very good weekend. The skids were really good I didn't have to get on to them once. And we got a surprise which was my dh's gma! She lives in FL. and we are in Ar.
My MIL had a treasure hunt with our gifts, you should have seen 18 people looking in a cabin for clues! LOL
When we found our gifts I had to laugh at mil b/c our gifts didn't arrive on time so she wrote what it was on a piece of paper. She got all of us season passes to Silver Dollar City witch is a theme park near where we live. I LOVE getting them as we go camping a lot in their camp ground and go to the park. We normally go at least 5 or 6 times a year.
I am really proud of my skids and kids as they were all really good all weekend long. The only thing is that the ss15 and ss11 didn't read their notes ion their bag so they didn't know about th4e tickets. Dh wasn't too happy and told them so and made them say thank you to his mom and apologize for not reading them. Other then the normal kid stuff like I had to tell them several times to take a shower or get dressed.
Then my nephew 3 was the one that got in the most trouble, I mean he is 3. He told his mom that "that is what _____(his name) do" when she told to stop doing something. That was funny, we were all trying hard to not let him see we were laughing. Then he would tell us that his sisters let him do that or have that but his sisters are 6 months old! LOL
Over all we had a lot of fun then bm HAS to stick her nose in by texting you did say 6 on sunday right? all the time. Why oh why does she have to have it confirmed every day several times a day????? Really?? Dh just left his phone in our room which was down stairs in the basement so he couldn't her it. LOL

I want to just say that my
I want to just say that my dh's family is one HUGE blended family. My Mil is a child of divorce plus she is my dh's step mom and she had 2 other kids. All her kids are her kids she refuses to hear the word step. Dh is remarried with 2 step kids, then one of his sisters is remarried with several step kids. Plus MIL got remarried about 4 years ago and she has 2 step kids so she has 6 kids in all.
Mil and I have talked a lot about my skids and how she coped when dh's dad and her got divorced when he was 12. Yes I said she is dh's step mom, how did she get to raise her step kids from 12 and 11 on when they divorced? Their BM was a druggie and she died of drugs. Dh told me that if wasn't for his mom (step mom) he has no idea what would have happened to him and his sister. My MIL has helped me a lot when it came to my skids. She is a great example of how a step mom is a great person and what she did. Not only did she take on 2 kids when she was 16 but then she had to seal with her ex remarrying and the kids going back and forth. She did go on to adopt dh and his sister.
