Fall, at last

 LOOK AT MY AMAZEBALLS 90'S HAIR.  (For a Madison Moms Blog Mom's Night Out costume-- super fun event, BTW).

Cooper, our resident adorable kindergartener LEARNED TO READ!!!!!!!!  Right now just one book, but he has read it A LOT.

 Friday morning, I volunteered at school playing literacy games with the entire kindergarten (all! 4! classes!) for 2 hours.  2 hours is a lot of hours to play literacy games with kindergarteners.

 Then I baked.  168 of these babies.  (ALL GONE).

 Ben and I had a lovely relaxing date night on Saturday and we went to the grocery store on the way home for donuts, cinnamon rolls, and Frankenberry cereal.  WAY easier than making another run in the morning.

 These two discovered that Room on the Broom is not only their new favorite Halloween book, it is also a TV show.

 I decided to multi task and make Sunday's home lunch for everyone, plus pack a round of Monday school lunches.  That's 9 peanut butter sandwiches and a huge jar of applesauce, BTW.

 We missed a 76-and-sunny day at the pumpkin patch to hit it up when it was 50 and raining.

 But!  The shitty weather ensured that our trip was EFFICIENT

It's finally gloomy and cold-- my favorite weather.  Happy fall!
