Happily exhausted




Today was an extremely long day.


We got to the farm at exactly 10, when they opened, we had a blast getting pumpkins right out of the field, we went on a hay ride, a Clydesdale wagon ride, and there were dozens of activities for the little ones, including grinding corn and a zip line. There were farm animals to see (I was more interested than the boys) drainage pipes for slides (climbing on hay to get up to them) and tiny tractors to ride.

Boom found a Wooly Bear caterpillar, who is now sleeping happily in a container in our fridge. Why? Because he is supposed to be dormant right now, according to this site. Oh, the things you learn, when you have little boys.

The weather was perfect.

My body held up well for all of the running around and climbing and carrying tired little boys. I honestly would not have been able to do this, 3 months ago.

Interestingly enough, neither child napped (Stefan for 1/2 hour only, on the way back) and they continued to play hard at home. I guess they got on such a high that they never stopped.

Everyone *just* got to sleep. I am crashing.

Fun is so exhausting, LOL.
