While Abby was at art class, Sam and I headed to Walmart. We had breakfast at McD's and then did a little shopping - I needed to buy Sam a new bike helmet because we brought his bike with us today but forgot the helmet!!! Duh!! So we bought him a new one, planning to spend the afternoon in the park with his bike!
We picked Abigail up and then we drove to Broadmoor Lake and had lunch in Kinsmen pool - watching the swimmers!!
Then we took a walk around the lake as the temperature was nice. Sam and Abby got to run about and play in the little bit of snow still on the ground!
They wrote their names in the snow with sticks and feet!!
Abigail went to her gymnastics class and got changed ready for class....we were still early and so they played with the big box of toys for a while:
While Abby was at gym class, we planned to take Sams bike to the park - but when we got outside the gym it was RAINING!!!! Poo!! Rain in November is really rare here because we normally only get snow this time of year!! It is nice that it was washing away the last of the snow BUT at temperatures close to the freezing mark, it CAN turn to freezing rain which is HORRIBLE!!!
INstead of the park, we went to the mall and saw the train in the Christmas window:
They have the same window display EVERY year and it's always fun to go and watch the train and look at all the ornaments in the display - Sam LOVES it!!!
We picked Abby up from gymnastics and then headed home. Susannah and Laurence arrived back DISTRAUGHT and crying!!! (Read why on my other blog.....sigh.....)
I sorted that disaster out and calmed down - then had to take Laurence back to school for his end of season volleyball team party. Came home and got the rice ready to go with dinner.....had dinner....now Lloyd ahs gone to get Laurence from his party and we will curl up and watch a movie or something to relax!!!
I am glad that art classes have finished - Pre K finishes on Tuesday and then we will only have gymnastics for a week or so - a nice relaxing December!!! No more Thursday rush, because I am not putting Abby in to two classes on the same day any more - no WAY!!!! She can't decide between swimming and ice skating for the New Year...but we hope to get spaces in art classes again because she loves those classes - the Winter semester of classes looks WONDERFUL!!! :) art journaling, collage, weaving, water colour, clay.....
