Fun According to Kids

Mom Lesson #583:  Kids have a very simple definition of FUN.

We had nothing planned for Fall Break, so I asked the kiddos if they wanted to do something super-duper-amazingly fun.  I told them we could do anything in the world as long as it was in Utah.  I was thinking we could hit The Zoo, Discovery Gateway, Treehouse...let's paaaarty!

After discussing their options over Cinnamon Toast Crunch, they decided they wanted to spend Fall Break 2011...Are you ready?....drum roll, puh-leeze... feeding the ducks, going to the library and making cookies.  Their only stipulation was the cookies had to have orange frosting and Halloween sprinkles.  No wiggle room on that.

Seriously? Yep.

NOTE TO SELF: Stop stressing about planning all kinds of nonsense and going a zillion places!! Sometimes little kids totally dig just hanging out with good-ole-Mom.  P.S. That's totally you! Are you blushing? ;) 

 According to my kids Fall Fun is:
riding in a wagon
stomping through a gigantic pumpkin patch
finding the ugliest, wartiest pumpkin EVER
zooming through a miniature hay maze about a zillion times
hitting the McDonald's for strawberry sundaes
