Sunday Post - 10/29/23

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

Monday was a normal day for us. Tuesday was full. The big kids had dentist appointments first thing. Then we went to a new to us park and met up with a friend. Then the boys got much needed haircuts. After that was lunch and nap for the youngest. Little Girl went to a playdate with a different friend who's great grandmother lives on our street. I did school with Little Boy and then he was off to Grammy's. Little Girl came home and I did school work with her. Wednesday was back to a normal day thankfully. Husband was off work this week, but that didn't affect our normal schedule until Thursday. I spent Thursday morning doing last minute things to plan for a birthday trip for the big kids. We left Thursday right after lunch to go to Great Wolf Lodge in Lagrange, Georgia. We had a blast. The kids were really well behaved for the most part and memories were made. Husband and I both agreed that the trip flowed well. Our only hiccup was that Baby Boy had trouble sleeping both nights which meant that Husband and I were both up through the night with him both nights. We did the waterpark on Saturday until about lunchtime and then headed home. It is good to be home though.

My annual "All Things Halloween" event is starting. This is my month-long event where I feature reviews from Halloween-y genres (fantasy, paranormal, supernatural, sci-fi, horror, mystery, thriller, and suspense). Over the last few years I've had mostly fantasy books as I just haven't been in the mood for much horror, but still...these are books that can get you in the mood for Halloween.
