We are going to start school tomorrow… even if it kills me. Tomorrow that all changes, though. If we don’t do school M-Th, we don’t go to the Renaissance Festival on Friday. (The “threat” is for my benefit, not the boys. They have wanted to get back to school for a while now.)
I am trying to think of costume ideas for the boys. They all decided they wanted to be the Grim Reaper, and I said no. lol I am such a mean mom! Last year Ethan was spaghetti and meatballs, Alex was a bag of trash and Christian was the Grim Reaper. Alex and Ethan both won best costume prizes at the party we went to.
We now have “Mr. Toad” living with us. I swear he has to be the smallest toad I have ever seen… and he is going to be in a HUGE tank. He is going to get lost. I asked Laura to try to find us some more toads. Hopefully she can. The poor guy must be lonely!
My SIL offered us her snake. He is 10 years old and LONG. I would take him if we had room. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t hold him. I used to love snakes but in my old age I am just not so brave.
Last Friday we went to the park and did a craft for the Ren Fest. The girls made flower wreaths for their heads and the boys made shields. All kids could paint a T-shirt, too. We have some really creative kids in our group! After the boys were done with their shields they all went into the woods and played “Lord of the Rings.”
Well, that’s about it for now. I am off to work on some science plans.
