How Was Your Yesterday?
We start our homeschooling routine back up next Monday so we are getting the most fun out of our last few days of no school. Yesterday we went and looked for rocks. Yes, my boys are currently fascinated by all different types of rocks so a rock hunt was due. After rock hunting for what seemed like miles we picked vegetables (even some non ripe tomatoes for fried green tomatoes -yum!) from Me-Maw's (their great grandmother) garden to bring home. I wish I would have brought along my camera. Maybe next time.
On our way back home we stopped at a local diner to eat. And, let me be the first to tell you it would NEVER make Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives Show. This place is lucky it hasn't been shut down by the health department. OHMYGOSH! We will never go back! The ONLY reason we stayed after we walked in to this establishment was because the boys acted as if they simply could not live another moment without food. We all know how that goes with kids,right? Besides kids don't seem to notice stuff like adults do- flies, cigarette smoke, and dirty tables. The cigarette smoking near the cooking was atrocious! I assumed smoking in restaurants was banned everywhere. Apparently not. In fact, my MIL and I just knew we were going to come down with food poisoning. However, it's a day later and we are thankfully not sick.
Anyway, today the boys are interested in spiders. I will not hunt spiders. That's something my sweet boys will have to do on their own. Dinner, complete with those fried green tomatoes we picked yesterday, is at the in-laws. Life is good.
So, how was your yesterday? Are you making the most out of your days before the back to school routine sets in?Labels: motherhood

Your yesterday sounds nice and fun! Mine was okay, work, home, etc, blah.
My girls LOVE rocks too (and spiders!). I just found your Contest for Moms site & submitted my site contest. I also run a main site ParentingPink (http://www.parentingpink.com) and a blog. It's fun isn't it? Anyway, just thought I'd stop by and introduce myself. Have a great weekend with your boys!
Rock hunting sounds like super fun to me!
You know I protested a bit about the smoking ban in NYC - civil liberties and all, blah blah blah. But now? I thank Bloomberg every day that we never have to think about it unless we're on a trip down south. I don't blame you for being grossed out. Ick.
