We traveled down Thursday and had tons of traffic and stop and crawl on the freeway thanks to construction. When we arrived we went to Sophia's house and played for a little bit. All the kids were so happy to see each other after a few months of not playing together. They played together nicer than they have ever played before! Then I dropped the kids off at Brandon's house for the night and I stayed with Angela.
Friday I went and picked up the kids again. Technically it was Brandon's weekend, but he really took advantage of me being down for the week and had me take the kids more often than I expected. That's ok, though, because it was fun taking the kids to all our old friend's houses to play and all the parks we used to go to. We even found a little vendor fair with free bounce houses and trick-or-treating to do! After five Brandon took the kids again and I went and hung out with my friend Angela again. She was so nice to let me stay with her for the weekend and we had way too much fun together!
Saturday I got the kids in the morning and we went to Staheli Farm for a Witches Breakfast! It was the cutest thing and Kylie and Hayden were enthralled the entire time! We went with Sophia and Riley as well. Kylie "wasn't scared", but then told me afterwards "I don't like witches anymore." Hayden was very scared and clung to me the entire time. There were about six witches who interacted with the audience and put on a show. They played games with the kids while parents got food ready for them and it was just overall a great experience.
Then we stayed and played at the farm for another five hours until the allotted time Brandon wanted the kids back. The kids could have stayed all day playing in the corn and the slides!
I spent the rest of the evening and Sunday morning with Angela and then at 1 I picked up the kiddos and we made our way home! I though since fall break was one more day I might skip the traffic, but NOPE! PLUS there were two HUGE sections of construction, resulting in us spending 6 1/2 hours on the road. Should've just stayed the whole day and drove home at night so Kylie and Hayden could sleep the whole way home!
We still had a fun time visiting with friends and doing lots of fun Halloween things this weekend!
