It's been a busy week loaded with fun stuff. Monday we went with Noah's class on a field trip to Wild Things Farm in Pocola. First, we took a hay ride to the horse pasture and the driver stopped in the middle of the field and got a pretty Paint and brought her over to the trailer we were in and walked her around for all the kids to see and pet. Noah got the first pet because we were at the back of the trailer and he walked across the aisle and got the last pet on the other side. We drove off to the next activity and Juddson was waving and hollering "Hose, MumOn!!" (Horse, come on)-- if you need that translated.

Next we arrived at the pumpkin patch and all the kiddos jumped out and ran for their pumpkins. We were in a hurry to get all the activities in, and so as soon as they picked one, they were supposed to bring it back and put it in the wagon. All the kids did so, but after Noah chose his, he ran off through the field, 


and Miss Holly had to go get him (because I was occupied with Harper and Juddson.)

He got into a little trouble and said sorry and then was grumpy the rest of the trip. After we got our pumpkins, we watched a lady demonstrate an old timey pumpkin launcher thing, and she hit the statue on the first try. Impressive. After that, we had a little snack, then went to visit the animals. They all got a handful of feed and fed the goats and pigs. (Judd was a little scared)



After that, they got to milk a pretend cow, then it was time to load up. 
Noah wouldn't ride the bus, he wanted to ride in the white truck with mommy...but Harper wanted to ride the bus and the bus driver said she could. I was nervous, but let her. They all wear car seats, and I followed right behind the bus... I was still nervous though. When we arrived at school, Harper got out of the bus and went and lined up on the fence, where we drop Noah off in the morning, waiting for the other kids to line up beside her, so she could go to school. She was so sad and disappointed (and threw a huge fit) that school was over, and she couldn't go to class. She was such a big girl riding the bus!


After the trip, the rush was on for breakfast, letting the puppy play and potty and then we got ready to take Noah to therapy. I felt bad for leaving Hoover again, so we loaded him up too. After we dropped Noah off, we went to Nanna's bank and tore up the turf there for 2 hours! The kids were wild, Hoover was a little wild, and had a tiny accident on the carpet, that Miss LaDonna helped clean up... They all had a blast, and we were all worn out by the time we got home. I still had dishes piled to the ceiling from the weekend get together and didn't feel like cooking, so Josh picked up a nugget tray from Chick Fil A and we had that for dinner. Yum... I drove the kids and they went down really quick, and came home and went to bed.
Tuesday after school and the gym and breakfast, I cleaned! I had to get the house in decent enough condition for Miss Becky to come over. She came in the afternoon, during Judd's nap time and taught Noah and Harper a couple of new games and gave us some new books. She is so sweet and we have a great time during her visits. She told us that the battle of the (marching) bands concert thing -- sorry, I don't know band terminology-- was that night... and Harper loves bands. Have I mentioned that after we drop Noah off at school, that we have to stop by the practice field at Darby to watch and hear the band practice... hope the teacher's don't get mad, but anyways, Harper and Juddson love it. Judd claps so big for them. Later in the afternoon, Noah felt hot, and I could tell he didn't feel good because he just layed around. I took him to play at mom and dad's and I took Harper and Judd to NHS. We parked far away and I carried Judd in the Kozy on my back and carried Harp in the front. What a good workout. We had watched a couple of bands by the time Josh showed up. It took a long time for each band to get on the field and get set up and actually play and the kids got really restless during that time. Judd would say "gin" for again, and want them to play more music. Josh and I were starving, so we waited in line and got the kids pizza and we ate burgers and nachos. We found a nice spot in the grass and had a "picnic" with the kids. We missed Noah, but I don't think he would have enjoyed it, especially since he didn't feel very well. He had a great time with Pa and Granny and Gussieboy. He played with Gus of course, did markers with Pa, and played hide and seek with the "CSI flashlight. He was glad to see us, and I let the other 2 go in and say hi and then I changed them into jammies and loaded them back up and drove them til they slept.
Today was our usual busy Wednesday. I am ready for things to settle down, we've been running all week.
