Happy late Labor Day to everyone! It was a packed weekend in our house and boy am I glad that the summer is OVER and normalcy can sometimes reign, although looking at our family calender and trying to find a day that is empty is like playing Frogger!
This weekend was Lorelai's very first football game to cheer at, and boy were the girls adorable!
To be honest the little flag football players were just as cute as the cheerleaders!
Then we had a full day on Sunday when we went to the Bristol Renaissance Faire, where it was the 2nd to last day and it was HOT and crowded. It was fun, but Lorelai put it best when I told her she survived worse in WDW. She said "In WDW they have rides inside!!" She was not happy being hot, even after she removed her dress!!
Not sure what Maleficent has to do with the Renaissance, but she was appearing everywhere that day from my shirt to the real thing!
As we were standing waiting for food we also saw Ariel walk by wearing her plain dress. And her wig was better than most Ariel wigs at WDW! Who knew the Renaissance fair had so many Disney ties!
Our friends were going to meet us there, but after waiting for 2 hours in their car to get in, they left! It was that crowded! We left earlier than we anticipated and stopped by Gurnee Mills outlet mall to do two of the kid's favorite things... Rainforest Cafe and Disney Outlet! Of course I wasn't that upset that we had to go to the Disney Outlet!!
That night Ethan had a friend sleep over that night, which made it a very late night, and a early morning. Boys and video games!!
Then we had a long get together at Chick-fil-A with a few families. Boy does Chick-fil-A have it right when it comes to playlands. Put them in a different room with a door so the kids are muted!
We ended up sitting and visiting for 3 hours, so long that the kids (all 7 of them) got bored with playing in the playland, so they played a couple games of UNO.
Then back to work today! I am going to try and bang out as much of my TR as I can, since I have two super involved classes this semester. One of them is Marketing, which is not my forte, so I am going to need to devote a lot of time to it!
