This week I have my niece and nephew staying with us! I was so excited my mom let me take them for the week before their school starts back again. Having 5 kids will definitely keep you on your toes. Yesterday I was asleep by 9pm after taking 2 Tylonal during dinner and then 2 more night time Tylonal after doing bed with all the kids 'cause I was trying to kick my low grade fever that crept up on me during our hours of fun!

Monday night, the kids were all {loudly} playing in the playroom and making loops through the kitchen and dinning room in and on the little tikes car where I was making diner and Matt was working on his computer at the table. Dinner was planned to be a simple taco meal. As I began adding the 'sides' to this meal I realized it was getting a bit much with the 2 types of tocos {soft/crunch}, white blanco cheese dip, refried beans, corn, lots of taco meat. I chuckled at myself trying to prepare a meal for extra children, assuming they would eat twice as much as my kids and not like the way we eat tacos. I giggled and Matt and ask, "Hey, will you decorate the dinning room like a Fiesta?!" to which he replied, "huuuh? You want me to decorate it like a fiesta?" I just giggled. A few minutes later I noticed I was no longer dodging just the 5 children but my hubs, going back and forth through the kitchen. Finally I curiously followed him into the dinning room. This is what I found:

He loves me? He loves me not? HE LOVES ME!!!

So I finished up my meal prep and Matt finished his decorating. I put all our yummies on the table and even set out Fiestaware for EVERYONE! We called the intrigued children in for dinner... I'm not gonna insult your intelligence by giving set-by-step instructions on how we did this. If you have any specific questions, feel FREE to ask away in the comment section below :O)

Go with the theme idea more so than copying the exact items we used.

We had a fun night! Everyone ate GREAT!!! With taco faces at a Fiesta, who wouldn't?

Some had a little more trouble by still scarfed it ALL!

How do you like to make an average meal fun?!?
