An Incredible Weekend


I think if given the chance this horse would of eaten all the hay for the "hay ride"

Ricky was feeding the carrot to the horse before he let it go.



I'm not really sure what her expression in this one is.

This past weekend has been great, extremely busy but great. For one big Ricky took the weekend off. Which to get Sat and Sun off is rare. So that in it self was a treat.

Friday evening started off by babysitting two incredible little girls (exactly my kids age) Logan and Addi. I took all 4 kids to a birthday party. Yes, I know i'm super mom!! Louryl was turning 1 and she had a Halloween based theme where the kids wore their costumes. Ricky was iron man, Logan super girl, Addi bumble bee and Hana ... well let's just say she refused to dress up so she was Hana.
The party was a blast. There was pizza, eyeball punch, dirt cake, cup cakes and on their way home they got a bucket filled with treats. The kids couldn't be any happier. We got home around 9pm and the kids 1st sleepover started. They actually didn't get to bed till around 11pm since we got home so late and the girls needed a bath.
Listening to the conversations between Logan and Ricky are priceless. In the car they were talking about Jonah and the whale. Logan asked Ricky how Jonah got out. Ricky replied with "the whale opened his mouth and Jonah had to get out really fast." In which Logan asks if he had a boat?.
Also Logan had red and blue in her hair, that is the main reason I had to bathe her. She told Ricky "your mom has a lot of work to do with my hair" 100% girl.
The sleepover went great. I'll have them back any day. They are amazing kids.

On Saturday we just relaxed and in the afternoon the kids had a birthday party to go to for a very good friend, Aiden. It was held at a riding stable ranch. The weather couldn't be any better. The kids got to play cow boy and ride horses and go on a hay ride. They had a blast.

Sunday we went to TGR Exotics pumpkin patch. This is my favorite pumpkin patch because it is very laid back. They also have animals you could pet and once in a while you get a treat and get to feed them. The kids got to feed a 1 1/2 month old camel from a bottle. It can't get any better than that. They also got to feed 18 year old camels hay. The camels were amazing. They got to pet ponies in the pasture and see a Joey (baby kangaroo) get fed from a bottle. Other activities were painting pumpkins, hay ride, and face painting to name a few.

When we got home we played sports in the backyard. It was so much fun. We played soccer, football and basketball.

What a great weekend!!
