It has been completely crazy around our house during the last few weeks. We have been constantly running to different events. I feel like I haven't had any time at home until today. So, of course, our house has suffered because of this, but, OH WELL! I choose to spend my time with my kids and I will clean the house when I can, but please don't judge me!
Last weekend, we took a trip to the local pumpkin patch. It is a small nursery right by our house and they bring out bouncy houses and fun activities every year. Every year at the end of September, Batman shows up there! It is exciting! The best part about it is that we only had to pay for Alexander. We usually go to the big pumpkin patch that charges everyone to get in and we just couldn't afford it this year. Luckily, Alexander loves going to the local place and couldn't wait to see Batman again.
He had tons of fun and we took a lot of pictures. Even Julia got in on the action at one of the bouncy houses and a rocking horse. She thought it was a fun trip too!
The funniest part was that he didn't even ask us to buy him a pumpkin. When I had told him that we could go to a pumpkin patch for him to get a pumpkin, he told me that he wasn't getting his pumpking there. He was going to get his pumpkin at Lowes. When he told me that, I laughed! We ended up buying his pumpkin at Home Depot, but he was happy with it.
This past week was really crazy. I took my third graders on a field trip and we didn't get home until 8:00pm. We had some tired kids and teachers. Luckily it was a really great trip, but I don't want to go on it again next year unless we charter buses. Waiting for the school buses to come back took too long.
Then this weekend, we went to two birthday parties. The kids had a great time, but Alexander was really worn out. He ended up falling asleep on the couch this afternoon. All in all, the last few weeks have been a whirlwind. Hopefully, I can catch up on housework and school work during the next couple of weeks!
