Today was eventful, to say the least.
Ben works with a spanish guy that invited us to a dinner that his ward was putting on. It was all authentic mexican food so there's where we had dinner.
These are of Bentley and Peyton riding to dinner.
Here is Peyton having tamalies with Ben. She wasn't really interested in the food as much as she was in watching all the kids run around:)
But being the shy little girl that she is, she pretty much roamed between my chair, Ben's chair, and her own chair.
Here is Ben's friend, Fidel, helping his son, Adrian, into a sack for the sack race.
Here's Bentley and I after we'd finished our cinnomon roll!
When we got home, things started to get a little crazy. Our big TV up in our family room's lamp has burnt out and our new one is being shipped so in the mean time, if we have anything we want to watch, we now watch it downstairs. It also happens to help in the fact that when we put the kids down for naps, we can actually hear when they get up rather then having to us the monitors. Well, I was upstairs and Ben was down stairs and we both thought the other person had Peyton. Well, she happened to be right in the middle of us.....with a magic marker.
Here is her art work! She got in some trouble and had to help us try to clean it up.
It came off her and the tile floor alright, but the walls and her jacket are a different story. The only thing we could get to work to come close to taking it off the walls was fingernail polish remover, which also took off them paint in the process. So we'll be repainting it looks like.
As for her coat, not so much luck. NOTHING took it out. I've been trying differnt concoctions to try to get it to come off, no such luck. It is getting lighter, but it still very noticable.
While I was upstairs trying to get the stains out of the jacket, Ben was watching Bentley, and Peyton was somewhere in the middle again, trying to "help" clean up. So all my baby wipes got pulled out of their box.
The jacket may just end up going to the garbage. Which is so sad because this was her first time ever wearing it and she hadn't even grown into it:'(
Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day:)

Oh the joys of parenthood - there's not any of us reading this that hasn't had a similar experience. You handled it well ! This may be the first time but it won't be the last.
Try AWESOME. You get it at Dollar General. It gets permanent marker off of rubber stamps. Black paint out of carpet(long story). Nail Polish out of white carpet. Its worth a shot. Good Luck!
