Fall is in the air!!

There have been one or two opportunities this past week where it seemed that the air was slightly brisker and the heat was slightly less sweltering.. Maybe it was a temporary cool front, or maybe (fingers crossed) it is a sign that fall us on the way!

Today we stopped at Sweet Pete's as a special surprise for the kids. It's the land of treats and chocolates... Sugar and lollipops. There isn't another place in town that appreciates a good fall candy-loving holiday like Halloween. So, despite the heat, we pretended it was fall and almost Halloween for a bit.

Boo!

Me and the goblin

Scary yummy goodness!

 

We need guinea pigs like we need a hole in our heads....

That is why we are 'borrowing' them!!

 

The preschool has two guinea pigs named Daisy and Petunia in the Discovery Science room. L has been asking for a pet and so I thought this would be a great opportunity to have a pet, but return it after a few days. Ha!

Both of them have had a blast feeding them and watching them. I don't really have a blast smelling them, but it's a small price to pay for sweet kid giggles and free pet rentals.
