A fall break week in review

We've made it to Friday! I cannot lie, I was a bit nervous having the girls home the whole week while school vacation happened... but we had a ball! The weather started cool like fall but has ended back in the 80s. 

Monday: meeting up with friends at Johnson Park
 They "chalked" every sidewalk! My favorite was tracing around their bodies and watching them decorate themselves

 With friends from church

Tuesday: a backyard party at Calista and Camryn's house
Painting with vegetables

 The gradation of swings...

Wednesday: storytime at the Collierville Library
 The topic was "Fall"
 The girls crafted their own fall trees as a craft

Thursday: a trip to the Dollar Store -- a great lesson... shopping! I gave each girl $1 to spend however they wanted. I'm not joking, Emi lost her dollar before we got to the store. Cora generously offered to buy for Emi instead of herself, so I loaned her a second dollar to choose her own treasure (what a kind big sister!)


  What did they choose? Fairy wings, of course!


Friday: More park time and puzzles --- both "for real" and on Daddy's iPad
