Family and Senior Pranks at Camp

My mom and dad are arriving in town tonight. Carter is in for a big surprise - he thought Christmas was over - but his gma and gpa from Kentucky haven't given him his presents yet. So tomorrow morning will be Christmas morning all over again for him (without the Christmas tree of course).

Our Student Ministry at New Covenant had its annual Winter Retreat last weekend and I must say that the senior class had the best and most creative pranks I have ever seen.
-----
The senior guys have been telling the girls every year for the past four years that they were going to put their mattresses on the roof of their cabin - well this year they finally pulled it off - great prank! (side note: the camp director overheard the guys plotting and kept silent and let them go ahead with it - awesome).
-----
The senior girls had 12 alarm clocks that they set to go off at different times throughout the night (the most creative prank I've ever heard of). They hid the clocks around the guys cabin and hoped for the best (I think most of the guys slept through most of the alarms - they are teenagers - but still a great prank).

Everybody's Growing Up

It's been a little crazy around the house the past few days ...
> Carter is starting to sleep a little better - no longer do we have to sleep in his room with him, but we still have to visit his room a few times each night to quickly comfort him and settle him down (way better than it was).
> The twins moved out of our room and into their own room a couple of nights ago - we also have transitioned them from sleeping in swings to sleeping in their bed.
> Here are some recent pics of the babes ...
