Hurray for days off school!




Today was a teachers' workday so Sam did not have school. In my opinion the best part of today was that there was no 6:30 alarm clock. The kids and I didn't wake up until eight. It was fantastic!

I think the kids would tell you the best part of today was the park. We tried a new park in Springfield that once was a farm. The playground looks like a farm, they have old tractors, and a few animals. The kids really enjoyed it!

We saw some chickens that both kids liked until a rooster ran over and cock-a-doodle-dood right by us and scared Ella. She loved looking at the miniature ponies and the sheep though. She was upset that they didn't want her to touch them. We will have to go to the park by Grandma's sometime soon where they let you pet and feed the animals. Both kids were disappointed that the cows were out in the pasture and not in the barn for them to see. Ella's favorite animal sound is definitely MOO. Overall though, I would say the animals were second to the playground that both kids were not happy to leave.
