Yesterday I took the kids out to the South Towne Mall and met Emmy & Lainey there. We rode the carousel, train, mechanical car, played around in the kids play area, and went up and down and up and down the escalator. It was really fun to get the kids out of the house and visit with auntie Em. With all this rain we've been having, it turned out to be a perfect little activity.

Today was Maddy's field day at school. Except, due to this never ending rain, it turned into a gym day. Since I am a room parent I got to chaperon the kids around from station to station. It was fun but incredibly exhausting! Trying to get 24 first graders to listen and follow what I say is damn near impossible. There was kicking, screaming, shoving, crying, and pouting..... and the kids were even worse. No, it was actually pretty fun being able to play around with Maddy and her classmates. They had an obstacle course, tug-of war, three legged races, potato sack races, and a full body workout station. By the end of it the kids were exhausted but giggling with joy. They all then got their yearbooks and took turns signing each others. The kids kept asking me to sign it as well which I thought was pretty cute. Maddy has made some pretty great friends and I look forward to seeing them all again next year when my baby starts SECOND GRADE!!
