Normally doing a chore like vacuuming, sweeping, or taking out the garbage is one of those annoyances you deal with because it needs to be done so you do it. Then you have kids and chores take on a whole new meaning! All of a sudden vacuuming has turned into "a monster's gonna eat your toes" time, sweeping has become the most adorable picture moment when even the smallest child wants to "help", and taking out the garbage is a contest in who can get it in the can before it eats your fingers time.

So it is also with washing the car. The car gets so dirty so quickly with five kids! We also don't have the best habits. We like to eat in the car and throw our sandy things in without doing much about it. Well, no more! After all the icky stuff we got out of the car today our habits are changing (I hope). So this is what washing the car looks like with five kids under 8 "helping" out. I giggled and laughed and of course, got wet. I had so much fun! Not sure if dad did, he actually wanted to get the car clean. Eventually though the car got clean and so did the kids.
