Pops was thrilled to ride the tiny train caboose w/ the kids


Kaden, Kendall, Kylee & Ethan all bundled up and having a great time...this shot was taken before they indulged in fried oreos :)

Kaden was terrified of the mechanical bull, but he did it!

We had another busy weekend that ended w/ a mini road trip to Ellijay, Ga. w/ my parents and niece and nephew, Kylee and Ethan. The drive up there went very well as it was during Kendall's nap and the others watched tv in the back seat. Then we all bundled up to brave the cold weather...it was Kendall's first time wearing mittens and she actually did not put up a fight and kept them on the majority of the time. The kids had fun with a variety of activities including a camel ride, rock climbing, a mechanical bull, train ride, putt putt and bouncies. The arts and crafts were a little country for my taste but I walked away w/ plenty of apple butter to bring home. I also thourghly enjoyed the fried oreos and apple pies...yummy!!! The drive home was a little less effortless as the kids were tired and hungry for the 5th time and needed to potty and the list goes on, but half way in they had fallen asleep or got occupied w/ Nintendo DS so we managed to make it back w/ no major meltdowns.
