Fun Saturday

Tell me there is a free craft somewhere and we're there!  Last Saturday Young had some work to do at home so I took the kids out to give him some quiet.  We started our day at Home Depot building firetrucks at the Kids Workshop.  There was also a little pumpkin patch set up there for the kids to meander through.
Our tradition is after Home Depot craft, we head to Krispy Kreme for a treat.  The kids are well versed in this tradition by now and continually reminded me where we were to go after we finished our firetrucks.
We then headed over to Michaels for the Kids Craft...painting pumpkins.  We love crafts!!  This craft took a while.  There were so many options to add to your pumpkin, the kids felt they had to use it all.  I don't have the final product here, but just picture glitter, glow in the dark paint, felt squares, googly eyes, and spider webs in no particular order.  They truly let their creativity flow.
Target is next to Michael's and the kids were feeling very pumpkin/haloween-ish so they wanted to go look at more Halloween stuff.  Cameron wouldn't go near the scary stuff so we hung out in the costume section most.  Nothing like having fun, just killing time.
We got home just in time to catch the Blue Angles part of the Fleet Week air show.  We had been hearing and seeing Blue Angles practice the past few days, so Timo was so excited to see all their tricks.  We're so lucky that we can see most of the show from our backyard!  I love Saturdays...
