11:05 – Leave to pick up Dane from school

11:30- Lunch

12:00 – 1:00 – Finish up homeschool

3:30 – Snack, start dinner, help Ryan with homework

4:30 – Dinner (I know, crazy early!  In the summer we eat around 6 or 7)

5:10 – Leave for football practice (Ryan & Christian)

5:30 – 6:30 – Dane & Annika ride in the stroller and we go for a walk with a friend

6:30 –7:30 – watch the end of football practice

Except on the weekends when we have football games & church activities.  (Oh, and I try to maybe make it to the grocery store?)

So, I’m sure I’m not the only one who has a crazy schedule, what does yours look like?
