Finals Are Coming! Finals Are Coming!

The week of May 17th is my finals week. I'm almost done with my first year at Sac State! Finally. It's been a long, yet fly-by year.

Since I will -or should- have my head buried in books until I'm through with finals, I won't be posting anything for two whole weeks.

But because I know you'll miss me so much and to make up for two weeks of no posts... Starting May 23rd I will post a new post every single day for seven days.

So check back then. And celebrate the end of semester with me and my daily blog posts.

Fairytale Town Fun

Last weekend, my brother, Barry, had a swim meet in Davis. He's a swim coach. He had to be there both Saturday and Sunday. So he and my nephew, Leyton, stayed with us for two nights.

Carley and Leyton are only 4 months apart in age. They both were missing their front two teeth. Twinsy cousins.

On Saturday, Leyton hung out with us all day. I took the kids to Fairytale Town because we hadn't been there for a long time and the weather was nice.

Fairytale Town has existed in Sacramento for 50 years. I think it's geared mainly towards little kids.

Josh has fond memories of how fun it is there. He insisted we go there instead of the zoo. And he learned that slides and climbing aren't quite as fun as a "big kid." He had fun but was just a little bored.

He needs a haircut.

The crooked mile, plus the crooked stile and crooked house, are always a favorite.

slide-by-slide
The "there was an old woman who lived in a shoe" slide is the fastest.

Remember how fast, and how hot, those old metal slides were? Way better than the plastic ones that exist on playgrounds now.

The made paper-bag puppets too.

It was a great day.
