Fun Festive Weekend

Well I don't know if you can technically count Wednesday as the weekend, but that is when the fun started! Mindy and I took the kids over to feed the ducks. It was the perfect afternoon and I think the kids both enjoyed being outside. With the fence they have put up it was hard for K to throw the bread into the water so a ton of his was falling on the bank between the fence and the water. Soon enough some of the ducks figured out that he was dropping huge pieces there and started coming up. He loved this cause they were so close to him!

This was me in the search for a smile! I love seeing her go from bored to clapping and sticking out her tongue! SO CUTE!

My sis came up that night with her girls. On Thursday we headed down to the Scarecrow Festival at Thanksgiving Point. It was such a blast! My friend Lisa was in town for it because her aunt and uncle like put the whole thing together, so she was able to get us some discount tickets! It was WELL worth my $5.

At first K wouldn't go down by himself. So I had to climb up there like 100 times! Pretty embarrassing, especially cause half the time I would make him go by himself down (so he would get use to it) but that left me looking like a huge nerd going down by myself too!

Finally he got the hang of it and Nae and I sat back while they kids went down over and over for an hour. It was kinda sad at first though because the bigger kids would be like all up on him trying to go around him, I was definitely that "mean mom" to those kids some times! Ü "Wait your turn" was a frequent from my mouth! haha

Nae taking her turn with the kiddos, before K was brave!

Us with the really tall man! He had to be so tired, he was on those things ALL DAY!

Cuties in the pumpkin patch!

Little pony ride, this was a hit!

K saw the train when we first walked in and insisted on going on it! Funny that he doesn't looked trilled about the ride!

Tractor hay ride

Miss Priss looking cute as always!

Seriously waited in line for 2 and a half hours to ride this. Whiters wanted to ride so bad she stayed in line almost the WHOLE time. I think they all thought it was worth it!

We got their faces painted right before we left. K wanted Elmo and this girl did it and it was SO hiteous. I wish we would have taken a picture. But I totally went and asked if I could have some else do it...am I ghetto? I needed my $3 worth! haha

It was such a fun day! The kids were SO good. I cant believe we stayed as long as we did. We went at 11 and stayed until 7. They had so much fun. It was so good to see Lisa and the kids. I am so annoyed we are lame and didn't even think to get a pic. I miss you already friend!

On Friday we went to Gardener Village to the Wee Witched Weekend. After Scarecrow festival it was pretty disappointing. There wasnt much for the kids to do, and the few things there were had HUGE lines and we had already done the day before. So we stayed for the costume parade, lunch and a pic with a witch.

I love that Libs is like...."um who is that lady?"

We told the kids since we didn't really get to do anything fun we would take them to the mall and let them ride some rides there. How many kids can you fit in the ice cream truck?

To finish off the weekend with a bam, we all got the stomach flu! Me, Nae, Phil, K, my dad, and Libs. I am also getting ANOTHER cold sore...what the? I guess you can only have so much fun huh?
