October 23, 2025-Halloween Hopefully at Maumelle

(click for today's pictures) 

The girls wanted me to make sure that they were awake at 8:15 this morning. Graham said that I needed to wake him up at that time as well. So guess who else got woken up at 8:!5-Whitman. And since he was awake, we even started reading early this morning. We weren't able to read too long because it was soon time for me to take the girls' to Mother's Day out. Campbell drove us and did just fine-actually, I'm not sure how she did because I was too busy happily drinking my hot chocolate on the car ride. 

We came home, and I worked with Whitman and then quickly with Graham. Next I must have been away from my phone for a while, because I just watched about 5 minutes of videos that Graham and Whitman made from my phone.

I was probably in the kitchen during this time looking for eggs. I had two things to make, and they both called for eggs plus milk which I didn't really have enough of. Also since there was a list of a few other things, I just decided that I would leave and head to the store. I do work with Whitman on school a few times a day, but he can do everything without me-my main job is to keep his focused. So without me there, he probably moved a little slower on his school work, but he was still able to get everything accomplished today.

I grabbed what I needed from the store, and then came home and made cornbread muffins and a chocolate cookie bar. In between making those, I made the boys grilled cheese sandwiches. It took me a while to clean the kitchen, but I finished just as it was time to pick up Campbell and Keaton. 

They had to babysit after Mother's Day Out, and on the way there I was going to stop at Dollar Tree to buy one thing that I needed for a project with Grannymom next week. And goodness, we went in, walked up and down the aisles, and I never even thought about what I needed to look for. I was so mad at myself that I forgot-that is why I always need to make a list.

After dropping the girls off, I came home and loaded the car. Then Whitman and I headed to Maumelle for the weekend. Robby cooked chicken enchiladas for supper, and we walked a bit while it baked. Shannon joined us for supper. After supper, we headed to another campsite to visit some more. We stayed there until it was almost 11 sitting by the campfire chatting away.
