Loving this time of year!!
I don't have much time (imagine that, haha!). I am in between fall activities with the kiddos. Today has been a really good day. Jeff is away today at Attica, Indiana four wheeling or mudding with my brother in law. I hope he has a great time. That leaves me with the kids. I took the kids to my mom's work for their fall festival. Their fall festival is really one of the best fall festivals ever. I will definitely NEVER miss a single year. They have so much stuff for the kids to do and everything is absolutely free. We got there and the kids each got to pick out a pumpkin in their little pumpkin patch. They had face painting and a bouncy house. They also have lots of food and a raffle. Again, all free. They even had caramel apples...free. The kids rode ponies. And they have a costume contest. My boys won 2ND place. The three of them counted as one child. They wore their monkey costumes from last year. The second place prize? You are not going to believe this. It was a $75 gift card to Toys R Us. I didn't even spend $75 on the costumes last year when I bought them. I am so excited. My mom said to me that God has a way of helping you when you need it. She was so right. The boys are turning 4 in a few weeks and to say I have been stressing about money is an understatement. Now, I have $75 to spend on them for their birthday. I can't wait to tell Jeff. God is so amazing. My kids were cute but they really did not deserve 2Nd place. The fact there was three of them kinda sold it. No complaints here. Right now we are doing quiet time. When Juliet wakes up we are going to the park for some exercise. We are loving this new park we discovered. There is a paved trail. I already have their bikes loaded up in the van. Then we are going to April's for a healthy dinner. After dinner we need to come home and do baths for church tomorrow. I already have every one's outfits picked out for tomorrow. Tomorrow Jeff is working from 11a to 11p. I will be solo with the kids, again. I don't mind. Jeff working overtime is a big blessing. I have nothing planned for tomorrow. I am going to have to think of something.
