When I get behind in the blog, I wonder where the days go and how I get so behind. Monday after taking down some Halloween decorations we decided to head to Disney. Our passes expire on the kiddos birthday so we wanted one last time there. We had a blast and were there way longer than anticipated. The lines were perfect, barely any at all. I was surprised at how many rides we got on. A friend met us there as well which helped with the kiddos. We started at CA Adventure this time. Justin begged me to go on roaring rapids. I couldn’t say no. Nikki went on the zepplers with Ms. Tanya while Justin and I went on the roaring rapids. He was so excited which made it better for me. It was so funny we got soaked and Justin just was all smiles. Nikki was pretty tired at Disney but she didn’t want to stop as she was having so much fun. We got on rides we hadn’t been on in a while like the circus train, etc. We were able to go on the Autopia, Justin’s favorite ride and Pooh, Nikki’s favorite ride. I am so glad we went since we had so much fun. I will miss not having our passes but have definitely enjoyed having them the past year. And look forward to using our Pretend City ones. When we got home we were all so tired. We read a book or two and the kiddos were sound asleep.
Yesterday we needed a stay at home day. I finished taking down Halloween decorations. Our spider lights are still up over the garage but I think I will wait for dad to help with that one. So sad to take down all the decorations. A friend came over to play yesterday. The kids had a great time playing. They played upstairs in the kid’s rooms most of the time. The kids got into a bag of cotton balls and decided that they would be hotel keys. They were pretending to be in Vegas and the downstairs was the lobby. We needed to just stay at home and play. I got some laundry done too. The kids watched some TV. Our internet and phone were down most of the day, very strange not having the computer. I almost didn’t know what to do with myself. After TV we went to soccer for Justin. Nikki to her Go Go dog. Of course there was some fighting over the dog as Justin wanted to use it too. Justin made two goals yesterday-yeah! Which reminds me I have pictures to get off the camera. Nikki found a little girl to play with while Justin played. We did an errand after soccer then dad met us on his bike and we grabbed some dinner. The kids finished up the cake from their birthday party. We decided to dress up Mrs. Bushy Tail and Mr. Pickles (from pre school) for Halloween. Mrs. Busy Tail was a lady bug and Mr. Pickles a spider. Then the kiddos made up the story. Here is the story:
Mr pickles was a spider, and mrs bushy tail was a lady bug for halloween. They went out trick or treating, and then decided to go to the beach. When they got there, it was dark. They played in the ocean. It was cold, but they didn’t mind. They dug in the sand and made a tunnel. They had a contest to see who could dig the biggest hole, and Mrs. Bushytail won. Then a contest to see who could fill their buckets first, and Mr. Pickles won.
After the beach, they went to get dinner. After dinner, they went home to go to sleep. When when woke in the morning, they had breakfast, took a trolley to the beach, and played again. When they got there, they put on their costumes again, but then figured out that it wasn’t Halloween any more.
Before they knew it, it was Christmas. For Christmas, they got a parking garage and played with it.
Here are some pics of Justin and soccer:
The first pic is Justin celebrating his goal. And the last one is him kicking the ball in, way to go Justin.
