Last Friday we had our first little dinner party after church. 8 adults and 7 boys (5 boys pictured on the couch- 1 toddler in the playroom and a napping baby in our room). I'm not going to lie, I was nervous about that many boys in our little house. But it was great, not a thing broken and not one throw down either.
Here are the boys after dinner watching a movie. Didn't leave the couch for almost an hour. There was silence in the other room. Unbelievable really. The adults sat around the dining room table and chatted. It was nice.
I made chicken tortilla soup (my favorite tex-mex recipe from Lindsay). I knew it was a success when Zach, the oldest and pickiest boy in the group told me he "really liked it" and finished all that we dished up for him.
After this I may be brave and do it again.
