2021 :: 42/52

 wednesday Al was back to work and it was rainy all day. we walked trevor to school then tova and i had a day at home which was so nice! i got a lot done and she got to play a lot! grandpa peter came over to watch the kids while i worked out, then supper, coloring, and a halloween movie before bed. 

thursday after school drop off, tova and i ran a couple errands, came home, made a craft, got a walk in and then during nap i got a lot more done around the house! after school, cassie, liam and elliot came over to play until supper time. al was late coming home. 

friday morning after school drop off, al, tova and i ran to a couple garage sales before coming home to play and have lunch. i worked out at noon then Al had a doctor appt at 215. after school pickup we went for a hike at riverview park near our house; the kids complained and tova cried so we didn't make it very far but was still nice to get out. then home for supper, video games, and a movie. 

saturday morning i worked out then we headed up to the cities. we stopped at mom's house first for lunch and to play, then went over to shane and jodi's house. the kids played outside even though it was a bit chilly/windy. then jodi and i took the kids on a little hike with obstacles and played at a park. shane grilled us ribs, we watched the badger and gopher games on the tv in the garage, had supper, kids watched a halloween movie, we had a fire in the driveway then we headed home. we stopped at mom's house, got kids in pjs and packed up then headed home at 815. both kids actually slept in the car and got carried in to bed once we were home (although trevor was faking it once we got home so he could be carried in :]) 

sunday morning was a quiet morning then trevor and i went to wagners for the gym packer party with matt, jodi and the kids. it was in the dome so the kids got to play in the sand volleyball courts and with some games. we had lunch and then left just before the game was over. after nap for tova and carsyn we went over to matt & jodi's house to carve pumpkins, have supper and celebrate camdyn's birthday! we had fun and were home for an early bed time! 

monday was back to work for al, school for trev, jodi's for tova and me. tova is finally pooping on the potty and finished her potty chart to get her doctor dollie that has been sitting in my closet waiting for her for a while!!

 wednesday Al was off. after i took trevor to school i got my walk in and then Al took tova on errands and the grocery store while i cleaned the house. i worked out at noon and then went through all my clothes and got rid of 2 garbage bags full (to donate.) we had wing wednesday and had a nice relaxing night at home. 

trevor was off school thursday and friday for conferences, so after breakfast all 4 of us headed out to garage sale (not many left), bring my clothes in to donate and ran to midwest home supply store where the kids each found a new toy. then home for lunch, nap/quiet time, walk for me and then trevor's virtual conference where his teacher confirmed that he's super smart and kind!! :) 

friday the kids and i we to carson park with jodi, her kids, her daycare kids and we picked up Graham. it was fun and trevor's friend Alex from his class was there which trev thought was so cool. mom came down after nap time and i worked out at 430. 

saturday morning was trevor's soccer game at 8am and it was 39 degrees so nana and tova stayed home. trev did great, scored a goal and had an awesome corner kick assist/pass! after soccer, we all went up to irvine park and it was so gorgeous out! we saw the animals including the bison up close and the baby lemur was up and playing. then we hiked a bit before heading home for lunch. mom left after nap time. 

sunday morning the kids and i went to connells apple orchard again and it was busy :( but they got to do the bouncey houses for a bit, we bought apples, picked some more raspberries and climbed the tower. it got really nice out!! 

monday was school for trev, jodi's for tova and i, and Al had off work. it was so nice out so we spent lots of time outside! that night after super, i took the family for a surprise drive. we grabbed some ice cream and then drove around to some of the cool halloween lights around EC. 

tuesday was school, jodi's and Al off. it was SO nice out so during nap time i went for a hike and ran to target. after school the kids got their kindles outside for some down time before trevor's last soccer game at 530. we all went to watch and could see chloe's game from trevor's field too!
