scarecrow festival

Sunday we took the kids to St. Charles to the Scarecrow Festival after we picked them up from the grandparents. It was pretty chilly outside, but the kids had a great time. Some of the displays are absolutely amazing what they do with the movement and creativity. The kids really wanted to ride some of the rides, but by that time Brienna had enough of being outside in the cold and with no nap. So we headed home.

The kids were exhausted by the evening which was made apparent by falling asleep in the car, and the crabbiness that afternoon. I am still transitioning Zach into no naps in preparation for next year when he goes to Kindergarten. Some days he does really well and other days not so much. On the plus side, he sleeps later in the mornings when he does not have a nap but on the down side it can make for some pretty difficult afternoons.
