LONG days these past three days have been. I had a migraine for most of the days, but there were happy moments each day and I don't want to fail and not blog them...having this blog reminds me that there is joy to be found in each day, each week, no matter how difficult the days or weeks may be!
Wednesday was Joel's first day back to school! I am so proud of him and being able to go. Connor had a great time at preschool and I got to sit quietly in the dark for most of the day trying to get rid of my raging migraine. BUT, it was quiet and a nice cold day out, so it was made for snuggling on the couch!
Thursday-Connor went to preschool at his co op for a make up day and all of the kids had so much fun! I got to meet with my friend Lori for lunch and we had the most delicious hamburgers at a cafe and had a fun time talking. She brought her one year old daughter and she is SO cute! It was so nice to get to hang out with a friend and I feel blessed to be making many many friends here!
Connor went to play at a friend's house after preschool and I walked down to pick Joel up. We found two really cute doggies roaming the streets so we put them in the back yard to keep safe and called the owners on the tags. While we were doing that, Connor came home and my poor friend couldn't find me! It made for a funny moment. Her kids came in the house and came and played some more! The boys absolutely love having friends over! It made for such a fun afternoon to have friends playing here and I was just so happy to see my kiddos so happy!
Friday-today I dropped Joel off at school and Connor and I went on a fieldtrip with his class to a Pumpkin patch in Celina Texas. What an amazing place!! It is so far out in the country and the drive there was so beautiful! There were so many fun things to see and do there and I had happy moment after happy moment listening to Connor giggle and run all over with delight! We fed goats, pet Longhorn cows, took a tractor drive, went through a hay maze, and took lots of pictures all over! They had those really big things of rolled hay and when we first moved here, Connor starting calling them "cow sushi." Well the name stuck and he was SO excited to get to touch them today! We have only ever seen them from afar before.
David worked late tonight so the boys and I did Chick-fil-A for dinner. They love that place and it was fun to get to sit and talk with the boys about their favorite parts of the day. Joel said he had so much fun at recess playing with different friends. That makes me happy that he is meeting new people and hanging out! The boys and I had THE best time tonight running all over our big house in the dark playing hide and go seek. They would scream if I found them and scream when they found me! It was a lot of laughter and I am so thankful for the fun playtime with my boys. Oh, and before that we took a walk around our local lake and there were swarms of mosquitoes and nats and we had fun screaming and yelling from them (I think you had to be there to see that one lol). So Connor went to bed and Joel snuggled downstairs with me for a bit.
It has been a fun few days and I am so thankful my headache is going away finally! Here is to it being Friday and to a fun (hopefully productive) weekend of play time and cleaning time! Have a good night all!
