Lots of activity...ends in laundry




What a weekend--starting on Friday, we had two events to attend every day of the weekend. We're not the biggest social butterflies as a general rule, so I was kind of unaccustomed to the pace. I already updated you all on Friday, and Saturday, the garage sale went well--I found some good warm running pants, a couple cute sweatshirts, a sleeping bag, and a pair of walkie talkies for Logan, a couple sleepers and an outfit for Auden, and some cute clothes for our niece, Isabel. After that, we went to celebrate Grammy Hill's birthday, which was a nice evening.

On Sunday, we all walked in Delnor Hospital's Walk for Women's Wellness, which we did in honor of Eric's cousin Brittany, who has been courageously battling cancer--in fact, she finished her last round of chemo today. It was chilly, but we bundled the kiddos up and enjoyed the crisp autumn weather. Then, we went to the Disney of Pumpkin Farms, Goebert's, which has a petting zoo filled not only goats, but also camels, llamas, giraffes, and other exotics. I wondered how these critters were and where and how this pumpkin farm procured these animals. Hmmm. We quickly realized how fast our son truly is. Any time Eric or I would take our eyes off Logan, he was tearing across the yard, heading toward some other attraction. Despite the fact that we explained why we wanted him to stay with us, he took off at top speed every chance we got. Auden, of course, slept through both events in the sling. I'm really savoring all this lack of mobility from him.

Today was pajama day in the Hill household, and mommy got a start on laundering the huge piles of clothes and blankets that have accumulated throughout the week. Same for the dishes. And tomorrow Logan's going to his grammy's so I'm looking forward to getting a lot of reading done...and maybe I'll get around to folding the baskets of laundry that are lined up here on the floor.

Oh, and my aunt asked for some pics, so hope you enjoy these!
