Oak Mtn. State Park Farm

While the name is a mouthful, it was so much fun.

Thanks to Lisa for the idea. Thanks to San for the pictures.

I'm so glad for everyone who made it. I will definitely be taking Josh there to learn about animals. And you can't beat $2 adults and free kids. Not to mention the animals just roam around free and you don't have to look at them through cages.

Getting out the kinks!

I guess this fall is a trial and error period of play group.

With all the bad directions and wrong names, etc.

I'm really sorry about all that!

So hopefully next spring all the "kinks" will get worked out right!

Keep your fingers crossed...

If anyone ever has an idea about a place they want play group to be or would like to host it at their home, please let me know!

Want a year of free food?

Every time a new Chick-fil-A opens, they give away 52 free combo coupons to the first 100 people to camp out all night.

When it first started you didn't have to show up so early , but now too many people know about it. Greg showed up at about 10:45 a.m. to the last one and was #80 (or close to it).

How it works: You show up to the location, show id to prove you are 18 or older, sign sheet to get a number, then hang out all day and go to roll call when they call for it. You can't leave at all but they usually give out free food throughout the day. You can bring kids and keep them with you, they just don't count as part of the 100 who get the free coupons.

Sorry...no pics for today.

Thanks for those who came!

Next time we go there we will have to take sand toys and play in the sand volleyball pit.

More Fire Station Pics

The kids got to climb in the trucks and even "drive". They had a blast (from what I could tell)!

Fire Station

I'm so glad for all who made it. Sorry it was so hard to find!!! I hope everyone had fun. Sorry I forgot my camera so these are cell phone pics.

I didn't even think about this until we were there with the fireman in his gear. I'm so glad that we got to do this so hopefully if the kids ever need to go to a fireman they won't be scared! It is really important. We will definitely have to do this next year too!

Halloween Costume Ideas

I saw this link on Rachael Ray's website and thought she had some pretty good ideas. I wanted to share in case anyone needed an idea to make a costume.
