This morning we just took it easy. The kids were in their jammies until we had to leave at 10:30. They played, they fought, etc. They are really into playing Uno these days. We went to their horse class today. It was fun as they got to ride Benji. Both kids were smiling and were pretty excited to ride:

Benji the horse tried to nip my leg while I was holding up his foot to clean out his foot. UGH! The kids got to feed the horses and Nikki wanted to save most of the carrots for her pony, Benji. Justin has a liking for the white horses. It was a fun morning. There was also a black pig and a goat there. Justin really liked the goat-wanted one as a pet and Nikki really liked the pig. We went to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch, a new place. The kids saw this place being built so they were so excited to eat there. It was a fun place to eat. Then we came home and did things around the house. Justin got out all the Geo trax and made a cool track. Nikki and him played for a bit. I went outside and gardened in the backyard. I cleaned out our veggie area. Justin helped me for a bit while dad and Nikki played Uno. Justin was so into the worms. He made a dirt area on the pavers and put the worms there and watched them. He carried them around. He searched for more worms-such a boy. He got gloves just like me and before I knew it-I lost my shovel. Nikki wanted to join in on the fun. Surprisingly both kids weren’t as muddy as I thought they would get. After dinner the kids played pretty nicely. They got out beads and pretended it was popcorn. They sat at their table and ate popcorn. Then they made some snakes, mama, papa, sister, brother snakes, etc. It was cute. Then they decided to go on a bear hunt with their backpacks. I love the imagination and love it when they get along. We read lots of books tonight. I decided at the lat minute to take the kiddos out to look at Halloween lights after brushing teeth, etc. They were so excited to be out, it was fun and luckily they went to bed.
