Thanks Giving

Tomorrow will be our first Thanksgiving in our home. Very exciting if not daunting. There won't be too many people here, just us and the in laws. However, having the in laws means cleaning the house. Luckily I already did the bathrooms but not so luckily all 12 4 kids are home all day. How does one clean the house and possibly keep it clean with 4 kids underfoot and following behind? I'm out of duct tape and I don't have a closet big enough. I suppose I shall delegate delegate delegate. The ear mark of a true leader hee hee. Things that must be done today... Clean kids rooms, clean living room, clean kitchen, sweep, vacuum, mop, wash walls, wash sofa covers, dust, clean the coffee machine, finish grocery list, go to the grocery store and the bank, wait... that's it? Sounds like a regular day, but I think I'll have the kids wash the walls, should keep 'em busy for a while.  To add to the stress, I'm still working out the kinks for my menu plan. Thankfully, We got the pies done yesterday. Yup, 6 pies, 6 kids, no we didn't make the pies out of the kids (although it was mighty tempting.) 4 pumpkin and 2 apple. Zeke made the pumpkin and Krystallynne made the apple. I'm kickin myself because I didn't think to bring my camera. We went to my girlfriends Grandma's house, with her 2 four year old boys and my 12 4 kids. Her Grandma is the absolute greatest. Now if only my Mother in law would answer her phone, I need some menu advice...
My giving thanks list to come...
