Gabe wanted to pick out a craft for his play date with Sam (neighbor friend), so we went to JoAnn's and he picked out a Wilton Gingerbread Halloween House. It was on sale and I had a coupon, so why not.
Then I dropped Gabe off at preschool and checked out the book fair at his school. I was happy to see Neysa Myers and get her recommendations on good books. I bought 5 books (2 for the kids for Halloween, 2 for Christmas, & 1 for Gabe's teacher).
After the book fair fun, I went to Olivia's school to volunteer in her Kindergarten class. I wasn't sure what to expect (never volunteered there before) but Olivia was really excited that I was going to be helping out. Her teacher had me help her with some projects and I enjoyed helping out. On a side note, I'm really impressed with Covington so far! My decision to go public seems to be the right, so I hope.
After volunteering at school, I went to pick up Gabe from preschool. Then his friend, Sam came over to play. Gabe was really excited to have him create the Gingerbread Halloween House with him! The boys played really well together and I look forward to them playing more often!
Then Olivia's friends, Annika & Caitlin came over for a play date. They went 100 mph in all sorts of different activities. One minute we were making bracelets, then they were dressing up in princess attire, playing hopscotch, Barbie doll Dreamhouse, and then they were jumping on the trampoline. They are extremely well behaved girls and Olivia is lucky to have them as friends!
After the play dates, it was bed time, so I let the kids see their surprise (aka, the Halloween books). They LOVED them!!
How awesome is it to make your kids day with something so simple as books?! I love our simple little life and wouldn't have it any other way! God bless each of you!!
