- Take all of your children to the dentist at the same time right before lunch
- Make sure the dentist's office is kid friendly and has toys and books
- These books will be read through at least twice by each child
- Take the kids home and whip up a lunch (30+ minutes past normal time)
- Naps begin nearly an hour past normal time
- Have them sleep 3 hour long naps
- Tease them by driving past a spray park
- Have them convince you to go home and get their swimsuits
- Go to a free spray park/pool at 5 (prime dinner time at this house)
- Sit down to eat dinner at 7
- Get everyone to bed an hour+ past normal bedtime
- Decide that your children do not need a nap (since they napped so long the previous day)
- Take them back to the spray place/pool as soon as they open (after lunch)
- Swim for 2 hours
- Drive to a different spray park which also has a playground
- Feed them a small snack and water
- Let them play for another hour
- Three hours total of swimming/playing in the sun (don't worry we are a sunscreen family)
- Have the children do small chores (shucking corn and sweeping)
- Prepare and eat dinner
- Make a fire and have s'mores
- Get everyone inside, bathed, and in to bed 30 minutes before "normal" bedtime
