This weekend was one of those weekends that flew by. We were busy, but it never felt overwhelming because it was all stuff we wanted to do and the kids had a blast!! We did Homecoming House Decks, Homecoming Parade, Pumpkin Patch, Family Pictures and a Trick or Treating event at Cohan's preschool.
Let's start with House Decks and Homecoming Parade...
One of the things that I love about Columbia is that it's a college town. To us, it used to mean lots of tailgating with friends, lots of fun games to go, to and travel to and more. Now a days, it means there are fun college events to take the kids to and they are starting to get interested in it all.
Friday night we went to House Decks in Greek Town. This was my first time. It was cold and now I know what to expect. Double stroller- not needed, cash - needed for snacks, spiked hot chocolate - a must.
Scott and I looked at the young college kids, then laughed at ourselves pushing the double stroller with two kids. Wow. Times have changed. Another dad, doing the same thing as us, laughed as he passed us and said, "At least our kids still think we're cool." Amen brother.
Saturday morning we were up and at it again. We headed to the Homecoming Parade with friends. Cohan and Ila Rose loved giving high-fives to the people in the parade. Ireland held out for smarties and suckers. The kids danced to the music and had a great time.
Tough loss that night, but we had fun with the Homecoming Festivities.
