We got to pick up Benjamin for an overnight visit from his Dad's house in a neighboring town. He and Ty didn't miss a beat and were wrestling on the trampoline within moments of his arrival.
Austin loves Buzz Lightyear and was quite excited about his new pajamas. Then I took the kids to Target for dental floss sticks and ended up buying the baby light up Toy Story gym shoes because Uncle Ty says he will need them for Trick-or-treating soon. Given how little we get to do for and with Austin, it didn't take much to justify the purchase.
I had the pleasure of working in four photoshoots this week. If you are inclined, some samples of those sessions are posted on my business website.
We otherwise spent a day seeking pants for a boy too thin according to athletic brands everywhere and located some $3 jeans for me in the process. It wasn't the goal but I am not mad. We grilled out, visited with neighbors, read some books, baked some bread and cookies and colored for fun. The cooler temperatures created opportunity for open windows and cozy sweaters. This was the reset we craved.
Lauren sent photos of our little stinker wearing the shark rain jacket we found him last year. He says, "oh no" in the most dramatic way and calls often to tell stories none of us understand. We cannot wait to see him again!
Saturday Greg smoked stew meat for chili and then he and Ty took the BB gun to the cans used for said chili. They had a literal blast.
We wrapped our evening with a family showing of Toy Story 4. It was a great family movie, made moreso amazing with a basket full of M&M's.
No one is ready for school and routine to resume tomorrow so we are counting down until Thanksgiving break. It's in six weeks in case you were wondering.
