Fall Fun

What we've been up to:

Toddler Busy Bag Exchange -





A craft swap of sorts where you make one activity X amount of times, depending on the number of people attending. In the end you swap with everyone else and you have tons of different, fun activities for your kids! What we received in return:
-Build your own snowflake and memory game
-rubberband peg board
-lace beading
-bear counting
-felt shape button game
-make your own pizza

Trying on hats:



This beret from Paris never really fit Violet. So happy North at least had it on for half a second!

Stacking things:

 

Skipping school:




Not really, but Ava did have her first day off from school. I had tons of plans, but only about 50% came to fruition. She slept in and we went to Detroit to have lunch with Daddy and ate at this amazing creperie, "Good Girls Go to Paris." It was uber yummy, and pretty "hipster" as daddy would say - aka, good people watching.




 Taking Walks:

 

Since I'm in charge of the ward's playgroup now I better step it up in the cheap adventure department. Yes, the sign says, "Mastodon Crossing." While they were building a Wal-Mart across the street they dug up some mastodon bones.

And perhaps most impressively we all went on a bike ride! Tyler hitched up two kids in the bike trailer and I got a cheap seat from Meijer and had Violet on the back one way and North in the back on the way home. It was so liberating!! Ava really needs to learn how to ride a two-wheeler, but until then, this was just amazing.
