Macy's preschool went on a fieldtrip to Husker Stadium. Welcome to Husker Nation!!! We got to visit the press box and walk on the field. Unfortunately, she didn't catch any touchdowns.
Halloween is always a hit with the kids (not with mom). This is one holiday I could do without. After watching The Wizard of Oz, Marin decided that she wanted to be "nice" witch like the Good Witch of the North (not like the Wicked Witch of the West). Macy couldn't decided which one of the 50 Disney princesses that she wanted to be, so the costume that was 50 percent off decided it for her. Marshall was very proud to tell everyone that he was Bob the Builder. We were excited this year to meet the Great Pumpkin. He came on Halloween night and took all the candy away. In return he left a prize for each kid.
Unfortunately we picked a chilly day to be at the pumpkin patch. We barely missed the rain. The kids didn't seem to mind though (only Mom).
In keeping with fall tradition, we visited a few pumpkin patches in rural Nebraska. We enjoyed spending time together as a family and with our friends. The kids had to check out every pumpkin before they made a choice. Marin was very excited to carve her pumpkin.
Knitting, quilting, playing piano, making jewelry, step aerobics, going to the park, taking a walk, visiting with friends and family, days when my kids cooperate, going out to dinner, reading a good book, watching LOST, sleeping in and finding a good sale or deal!
