Fall Break

The boys had fall break the weekend before last.  They got off Friday and Monday.  We had planned on going camping but Brian was still playing catch up at work from having to take care of the boys when I was sick a few weeks back.  So we stayed in town and tried to do a lot of things we don't normally have time to do with school and sport-filled weekends.

On Friday we went to Lucky Ladd Farm (which I'm post separately).

On Saturday we went to the Thompson Station Touch-a-Truck (again, I'll do a separate post for that).  We spent the rest of the day watching two great football games - NCSU beat Notre Dame in the crazy hurricane rain and wind.  And UT almost pulled off another crazy win at the end of the game.

On Sunday we aerated and overseeded the yard (not as much fun).  But the boys got to play outside all day and are really starting to enjoy their playhouse (which I don't think I've posted any completed pictures of - I need to do that!).

On Monday I took the kids to the Adventure Science Center.  It's been awhile since the big boys have been there.  They had a lot of fun and Gray loved running around with them.  He even made it to the very top of the Adventure Tower (as did I - it's getting harder to crawl up there!).

After a short break at home, I took the boys to Smith Park to check on our letterboxes and plant two more.  We continued with our ACC series and planted ones with the Virginia Tech and Carolina logos.  Gray did awesome in the backpack and so did these boys hiking around!  Someone has already found the new boxes and the boys were super excited!
