what a way to end the summer, with a cool morning, and not a cloud in the sky! we enjoyed this morning at home, lounging w/ coffee and reading the newspaper. the boys behaved, with a promised trip to zoo within their reach. the boys had a great time at the zoo, it was so easy, even w/ three children, plenty of snacks, enough one on one time w/ each parent, lots of hugs, cuddles, lounging on the grass eating grapes, it was a good morning.
came home, put dinner in the crock pot. spent the rest of the afternoon w/ the boys playing outside, hubby doing paperwork. e loved watching the boys play-i have a feeling he's going to love all these beat up toys as much as his brothers have. it amazes me how creative our boys are, only a few toys out, and 2 hours sped by-not a complaint/whine was heard!
went for a short drive to check out the damage that we have to pay for-we're going to line up our own estimates for this week-i suspect it'll be cheaper, but what's fair is fair, its not worth raking hubby over the coals for this, he's been through enough.
ate dinner, and everyone went off to bed early. its a long week ahead. paying bills for the month, prepping for a yard sale at the end of this week, trying to keep my spirits up for hubby, we'll just take it one day at a time.

I am glad you all had a nice day at the zoo. It was wonderful weather yesterday wasn't it?
It amazes me also that my girls will play with a box for two hours, over the toys that they have stacked up in their rooms. Sometimes I think we try too hard with all the toys and gifts, when really less is more.
Have a nice week!
