Nora was able to get in some great stroller time {her favorite} at my school for two school-wide events on Friday night and Saturday morning. Friday night was a school family night of sorts and the weather couldn't have been better. We pushed her around the playground and I got to see many students and my colleagues whom I have deeply missed while on my leave. On Saturday Nora and I participated in walk for one of our school's students who has been undergoing treatment for leukemia. Again, beautiful weather and Nora slept for the entire 2 mile walk.
Keeping with the great weather theme, when Nora and I returned home I handed her off to Hubby and had some yard therapy. I got out my electric hedge trimmer {my favorite} and went to town on our hedges giving them their fall trim. The last time I worked in the yard I was 9 months pregnant. Much easier 8 weeks post partum! I was able to trim in record time, put away our solar lights and FINALLY decorate our front stoop for fall. I'm always at a loss as to how to decorate our front stoop. It's not large enough to be considered a porch but has enough space that it can look pretty bare without something in its space. My aunt gave me some great looking gourds from her farm a few weeks ago and I was so excited to finally have something to display!
That night the fun continued as we went on our first evening outing as a family. We joined our good friends for a Wizards soccer game. I was a little concerned how Nora would do as she was still pretty fussy in the evenings. We had a bit of a rough start but things ended up just fine and we made it through our first Wizards game as a family!
