Dinner at the Albert household tonight:

5 Pizzas.

Really.

*Sigh*
I guess all good things must come to an end.
All the guys are getting their hair cut for baseball seaon.
But I like the shaggy look! Trust me, it covers over a muttitude of sins. Acne, lack of tan, unibrows, you name it. Now that you can actually see these people, the charm is lost.

 

Oh. My. WOW.
Until Monday, I am the oldest of sixteen. That's right, there are 15 kids younger than I crawling around. The scary thing? We're only hosting one other family.
You might think it's insanity over here, but it's really not that bad. At any given moment there are four kids in the garage, six playing a card game, two reciting bible verses, one playing piano, one trying to blog, one harassing the blogger, and two babies looking cute.
This morning at breakfast we went through a about two gallons of milk, and I-don't-even-want-know how many boxes of raisin bran.
But here's the best part: All the girls are sleeping in the girl's dorm, and all their boys are with our guys. There's so much body heat, we kill the heater and we're still cracking windows. But at girl's dorm, the giggling is so bad, I'm sure the whole neighborhood can hear us. So what? We have 20 people living in 16,000 square feet, and we're doing splendidly.
My friend's dad is a realtor, and he's having a really hard time fathoming how we do it. Easy. We all do chores before and after breakfast, then we had a piano recital. Right now were having a ping-pong tournament--single elim, my money's on John--and then we're all going to have lunch. . .
Don't even ask what we're making for lunch. All I can say is there's a LOT of it!

Regionals was AWSOME!!
But sadly, I don't have any pictures yet. Hehe, I will get them though, and they're worth checking out.
Firstly, quizzing went ok. I placed fourth personally. Aaaah, mediocrity. . . But my team placed second, that was pretty sweet.
And the prom dresses you ask? Well, you'll just have to wait for the pictures. All I have to say was that our plans were discovered, and the results were hilarious. But wait for the pictures.

And since we're on the topic of quizzing, I guess I should mention that Nationals is right around the corner. Our team is the Filibusters, which is made up of the top 7 quizzers from our league. Even if we don't quiz really well, we're going to have lots of fun.
