Busy Busy Busy

I'm sure its no surprise to anyone how dang busy Mom and Dad are. Partially with working, writing, church callings and public speaking, but also with grandparenting. Coordinating schedules and travel arrangements between the 8 kids is a job in itself!
I found it hilarious when Mom sent the following "schedule" out to some kids to inform them of when we would be home and available to help out. I thought you guys would get a kick out of it too. And, as an unintended function... now there's a resource for everyone to see where in the heck Mom and Dad actually are at any given time.

Wow it makes me tired just reading about it. I didn't know Dad will be in South Africa for two months! Looks like your adventures never stop. I can't imagine planning so many trips. Lucky you are such an awesome organizer Nat!
