Last night I watched a show on TLC about the Duggar family. They have 16 kids and all 16 are home schooled...or at least the ones that are old enough for school. They had a show on TLC last year called 14 Kids and Pregnant Again . In that show they were in the process of building a house. In the show last night, they were moving in...I believe it was called 16 Kids and Moving In.
They built a good deal of the house themselves. It was actually 2 floor plans they combined. I'm not positive of the details, but I think it's between 6,000 and 7,000 square feet. An industrial Kitchen, a living room the size of a hotel lobby, a regular family kitchen (with 2 of everything...fridges, dishwashers, ovens...), Huge bedrooms (the kids still share rooms, but they are huge), a giant game room complete with a slide that goes from the boys' room to the game room, and reading lofts for the girls set into the ceilings of their rooms. The house is beautiful and it's so cool to see this huge family who had been in a regular sized home move into a house that fit them.
Husband and I were sitting in the swing watching our boys play on their swingset. I was telling him about the house the Duggar's built. When I finished he thought for a second and said, "We've got a sand box."
I said, "With no sand in it."
"OK, so we've got a box..."
"It is shaped like a turtle."
"We are blessed." Smart Aleck!

LOL ... This sounds like a conversation my husband and I would have.
This is my maiden name with a small spelling change. I only hope those Duggars are better than behaved that the Duggers that I know...
I watched that last night. Then dreamed about them too. Can you imagine what a stomach virus loose in that family would be like...*shudder*... particularly when they just had those two bathrooms... cause you know those viruses tend to go through every member they can get their hands on before you can actually get rid of it.
Anyway... now that I've grossed you out.
Hehe.. I like your conversation. Sounds a bit like one of ours. Smart Alecks are fun.
Hey we have that turtle shaped sand box, too! With no sand in it.
I'd love just one extra room.(Well, I'd really love way more, but even one would help!)
Another turtle shaped sand box here. Ours has sand because the kids dig in the flower bed!
