Fall festival

One of the joys of being married to a football coach means I get to do all the fall festivals solo with 3 kids. That sounds fun doesn't?!?! Who doesn't want to take 3 kids to a mini carnival with candy, cookies, and cake at every turn. Oh add in that it's probably 85 degrees and the kids are melting in their costumes. One decides to strip out of it in the middle of the festival... Thankfully he had on a shirt and shorts underneath. All 3 want to go in different directions and want to play a different game. The games they do decide to play together of course one wins the "big prize" and the others get the mini prize - that always goes over well. Besides all that it was a blast. All kidding aside they all did pretty good. We needed a couple reminders abdiyt staying together, but they did pretty good being patient while a sibling played a game.  We ended the night with the best mini donuts we get at the football games and Kono ice because doesn't every kid coming off a sugar high and exhausted need that at bedtime? Jack loved his first festival and Mommy is already counting down for the next one. 
After taking off his costume I decided we would call him a football coach since his outfit kind of matches daddy.
