The Pool, The Farm & The Fair

Wow, I am worn out! It has been a busy and longggggggggg week.

John got the pool ready for closing on Sunday and on Monday the pool guys were here with the cover. Boo...sad to see it all covered up now.

Shelly and I went to a super cute little farm on Wednesday and had a blast checking out the pumpkin patch, the cows, the chickens, the pigs, and the corn maze. Fun!!!

Then on Thursday Lily and I went with her 3rd grade to the NC state fair in Raleigh. I had never been to a state fair so it was all new for both of us. There were tons of rides, animals, and FOOD! Lily loved every minute of it. I loved about every other minute of it (I became a little obsessed with watching the 13-16 year old girls who were just hanging out. I imagined they were hooking up with the carnival guys and became completely grossed out at the thought!). Overall, it was a good time with perfect weather.

And on Friday night, 14 of us went to the theater and saw High School Musical 3. We got into the 3:45 show and there were hardly any people there. It was a really cute movie with lots of singing and dancing. The kids all enjoyed it and all of the moms were crying at the end...can't believe I'm admitting that! After HSM3 we had dinner with 9 kids and 5 moms at Macaroni Grille. The children were excellent and we got some sweet comments from the waitress. That always makes a mom feel good!
