On the last Friday of the school year Andrew and I had an active and fun day. We started rather lazy at home where we played some Splatoon and also watching some Phineas and Ferb. Those are two things that he enjoys so much. We hung around home till around 1pm because we were going to a fun event at a local park to kick off Summer Reading. We had learned about it from our last day of Playgroup.

There are a lot of good programs for kids and families in my city. I’m really appreciative of the programs and they have been very beneficial to our kids. Both Eva and Andrew have attended the free playgroups. I’ve enjoyed the past few years taking Andrew to Playgroup. He’s made some nice friends and I’ve met some nice people to talk with. We saw a bunch of our friends at this free event. There were all sorts of things to do like Face Painting, the High School Band led a parade, some obstacle courses and even giveaways. I signed the kids up for the reading challenge and renewed my library cards. I even signed myself up for the Adult Summer Book reading.

We had a fun time which also included a trip to Tex Barry’s for our lunch. When it was over we headed home and Andrew was exhausted and if I had taken the long way home I’m sure he would have slept but his face was covered in face paint and I didn’t really want him getting his sheets covered in it. So I took him home and he wanted me to wash his face paint off right away, glad we waited in line for 25 minutes. Then we went up to my bed and watched some Netflix. I tried to sleep but that didn’t happen. I did have some time with my eyes closed so that is something.

Farm Day

Today was Farm Day at Eva’s school. This is a very fun event that they do every year for the kids. There was a petting zoo with baby goats, pigs, bunnies, kittens, chicks and ducklings. Eva was really good, she knelt down calmly and let the animals come over to her. Then she promptly pulled her hands away when they wanted to get too close. 🙂

Whoa There!
