On our way to a pumpkin patch we stumbled upon a small Medieval Faire!
After we checked it out for a little bit, we headed to the pumpkin patch.
We go to the pumpkin patch for the animals!
My kids love petting and feeding them all!
They even had a porcupine this year!
They had to have a sign warning that the porcupine bites.
Who tries to pet a porcupine?
People are odd.
We have never really done much for Easter.
This year I was thinking about doing several things but was prepared for none of them.
I forgot to get everyone new clothes so I was scrambling around Sunday morning to find nice things for everyone to wear.
I felt like it was a miracle we all got ready in time for church.
Then we stepped outside and saw all the windows down on the vehicle, in the rain…
I was ready to call it quits but my husband told the boys to get towels.
I was thinking “WE ARE STILL GOING?”
Ha.
We made it but I realized I had nothing special for Easter meal.
I had thought about it but never actually bought it…
We decided to go on the trip to the Salt Plains Wildlife Refuge while driving home from church.
It is 2.5hrs one way to get there.
I was so happy though.
Definitely more my speed than fancy meals and themed activities.
2.5hrs for snow?
YES!
Someone just read the Chronicles of Narnia and was taken with the Dawn Treader.
Instead of Easter eggs they searched for bones.
My kind of Easter!
*I updated this post with pictures of our girls also after adoption.
I was not able to share them at the time since we had not finalized the adoption.
With a total of 9 kids together all day we made sure we were going and doing things a lot while my in-laws visited over Christmas.
The zoo was a nice easy way to get energy out while seeing cool animals.
The little Joey was pretty adorable.
What do you like to do when you have a lot of kids to entertain?
