For the preschool set, fall break isn't much more than a long weekend.
Connor's private school is closed on Friday this week, and as a Monday-Wednesday-Friday kid, he was officially finished at noon today. The little guys attend the local public schools in the form of Early Start (which also offers speech and occupational therapy as part of their day), and the local schools have fall break tomorrow and Friday (though the twins were also home today for an Early Start teacher work day). They were done yesterday afternoon at 1:35.
The twins are at home with us. Connor, lucky devil, is at the lake with Grandma and Grandpa, and cousins Austin and Kyndal (also on fall break).
Grandma and Grandpa drove up earlier in the day to finish up a little Christmas shopping (yes, hate them now, they are done). We met them for a late lunch after Connor's school day ended, driving across town to the only McDonald's (out of like 25) in town with an indoor playland. It worked well, because we spent hours there letting the kids work off some rainy day energy. The adults (and Connor) might have preferred Chick-fil-a, but the twins are not fans.
After lunch and play, Connor left to help Grandma and Grandpa with a little more shopping while they waited for Austin and Kyndal to finish their school days (middle and elementary school, respectively). By now they're probably all sipping on Pepsi's and having some popcorn. That's the nightly ritual. Although our big boy might already be fast asleep. He's had a busy couple of days.
Now, what to do with the little guys for the next few days. Four whole days with no school. Mommy might just go a little crazy!
