Adventures of Two Sisters, One Brother, and a Mom: Fresh Air And Cake....

This past weekend was pretty fun filled.... Saturday Little A had a Birthday party to go to... maybe I'll post photos later-- Then, on Sunday, I took my kids and The Pixie's son to Piedmont Park. We had a great time! First we ate at Willy's... Of course I had to have a little Margarita... Then after our late lunch, we walked around the park for a while. As usual, we ended up at the playground. The kids ran around like banshees while I tried to keep track of them... Four children running in different directions... not an easy task! Annie came to the park with her dog Lola. She and I sat by the playground talking while the kids continued to run amok. They were running, jumping, climbing, throwing, and just generally being rambunctious.... They were having fun. I got tired just watching them... Later, we all made our way to Park Tavern to meet the Pixie. Annie came along too. It took quite a while to get across the park because the kids kept stopping along the way to pet dogs, roll down hills, and wrestle... The Pixie had to wait a bit... We adults had drinks while the kids continued to play on the lawn. We ate appetizers for dinner and finally left as the sun was setting. It was a great afternoon.

Monday was J's birthday. After school, the kids and I headed over to the Pixie's house for dinner and cake. We ended up spending the night due to the late hour. J had a good time and got lots of cool gifts. The kids got nice and sugared up before bed... always fun for Mommy.

The rest of the week has been nothing to write about... nothing at all. Hopefully this next weekend will be better. Little A and J are going to be having a joint Birthday Party at a local park. Nana should be coming into town... the kids should have fun. I'm sure I will too... I hope anyway. Summer is over and life is getting back to the usual grind... I guess that's a good thing. I'm not sure. We'll see how the Fall goes... But it was a good Summer... I ended up having a much better time than I had anticipated.
