Game Day

Today has been a long, fun day for all of us. Josh and I were lucky enough to have both tickets for the local college football game and willing babysitters in Grammy and Pappy. They came over this morning to watch the kids, and we headed off to the nightmare that is parking on game day.

We parked about a mile and half off, which meant we missed kickoff, but we still got to see most of the game - including the part where they lost in the fourth quarter. Despite the loss, we had great seats (in the shade even, which was important since it was above 80, in OCTOBER). We also munched on unhealthy food, and we enjoyed getting out and doing something adult for a change!

The kids had a great time spending the day with Grammy and Pappy. After lunch and nap time, they took the kids back to their house for some outside fun - helping Pappy plant flowers and trees and playing with his three puppies! The took a little walk, went down the street to see the horses on the neighboring horse farm, and had a big time just hanging out.

Everyone is now attempting to recover from their respective days. All the little people are already sound asleep (after quick dinner and even quicker baths), Grammy and Pappy are probably thankful to have a little peace and to be able to rest again this evening, and Mommy and Daddy will probably fall asleep watching baseball (Daddy's choice) on the couch.

Just another day in the life . . .
