returning home

Well we are headed back home after a quick overnight and day mini trip. We visited a pumpkin patch but that doesn't really do it justice. Its like a Disney Fall festival with so many things to do and so many great things to eat! We had a good time. Tom and I chose to stay at a hotel the night before and I'm so glad we did. The girls screamed the entire last hour of our trip. We never would have survived two car trips like that. I can pack toms of snacks, games, movies, toys... but if they get bored it's all over. The screaming levels they can get to when they work off each other. The hotel was spectacular. I found us a great deal and the girls enjoyed the beautiful room. Abby slept on the couch and the babies slept in a pack and play. It went well. The next morning they woke up around 7am and so we got up, got dressed, and went down for breakfast. I'm still amazed how much they can eat.

After breakfast we went down to the pool and swam for a bit. I need to remember to bring floatees. It would have made watching the girls easier. After swimming k&k took naps.

Toms cousin was one of the main reasons we went down. She had never met any of the kids and it was so fun to see her again. Abby's cousin was there and she loved playing with him today. Two peas in a pod! The babies were incredibly fussy and made it difficult to do much at the festival. I'm not sure if they are teething or have ear infections or what... lol... but they ran fevers for a day and have been cranky since. Might need to get the ear drops out again. I will post photos when i get home and can get them off of my camera.

So a weary car load is headed home....
