Wow...7 days of November are almost gone. In just over 2 weeks we will be South Georgia bound for Thanksgiving and then it will be December immediately after that!!!! Where has this year gone?!
I can not believe I have skipped over a huge milestone in Miss Love Bug's life. Her bedroom is finally pink!! Did I mention that? I am so behind on blogging that I am not even sure if I have already written about it. Oh well, I will mention it again. The princess finally has her pink room. The Mayor and Love Bug were both eager to help...and they can't wait until it is time to paint The Mayor's room.
The Mayor's fun run was a couple of weeks ago, but because of our awesome family and close friends, he raised quite a bit of money and came home with a lot of fun prizes. These glasses were some of his favorites from the week.
We spent the morning after The Mayor's family party with an 8am bonfire and s'mores for breakfast. I mean, when you turn 6 it is only fitting to have s'mores for breakfast. I love making these memories with the kids. It is fun to break the rules every once in awhile.
That afternoon the kids made spooky haunted mansions. These kits were super cute, super cheap and super easy for them to put together and decorate. They were so proud of their creations. They were on display until yesterday...they kept picking at them while they ate and the shelf life of these cute houses had run its course.
Love Bug had a fall festival at her school last week and she was beyond excited I was in her class. She is a little jealous I am able to volunteer in The Mayor's class as I often as I do but there just aren't opportunities in the preschool like there are in the public schools. So the look on her face when she saw me in her classroom was priceless. I just love that sweet girl. She barely left my side the rest of the day...she wanted me to sit by her during crafts and lunch and was reluctant to go to the indoor playground with her class because she was afraid I was leaving. I promised her I wasn't leaving and watched her play through the window. One happy girl.
This past weekend we decided to have Sunday Funday. D and I have been dealing with some sinus stuff so we skipped church and took the kids to the gym and let them swim in the indoor pool for a couple of hours. After the pool, we took The Mayor to the indoor rock wall at the gym and let him climb it. They have family climb hours where a few of the walls have auto belays so we just put The Mayor into a harness, clipped him onto the belay and off he went. He climbed about 6 times and each time he would get higher. And when he didn't want to go any higher, he would lean back and push off to get down the wall. He was a little professional.
Tomorrow The Mayor has a book report at school. The students have to dress up like their favorite book character then talk about the main characters, the setting, and what happens in the beginning, middle and end of the story. He had to write it all out and will present it to the class. And reminder, he is in kindergarten. Crazy.
Looking forward to the project being over and the weekend starting.
the mayor made this spider at school...and I don't want to ever forget it.
Best. Spider. Ever.
