So it ends...

Today, is a sad day for my little princes... after almost 2 months of fun, watching the softball practice every evening, long days in the park and strolls grandma is leaving for home tonight.



This is going to be a huge adjustment for both of us, for Natalia because she had a total and uninterrupted attention and constant entertainment for 2 months straight and for me because I had the freedom of working almost anytime I wanted without worry.

Now the countdown to our Poland trip next spring, begins.

Under the Apple Tree - Chudleigh's

Even though apples are not ready for picking yet until some time in mid-August, Chudleigh's Entertainment Farm is open to entertain. Check out their website.
They have giant and I mean giant slides for the kids - I tried one myself and it's FUN.
Farm animals "Zoo", huge sand box, hay maze, rope swings, wagon rides, and the list goes on and on.
I took my 3 year old daughter and my mother in law there yesterday and we had a blast. Natalia loved it and when I asked her about her favourite part of the trip, she sad the baby animals and the wagon ride! She's my kid, because that was my favourite part too, well, that and their AMAZING, to die for Apple Blossom!
I have to say the smells of the farm (some not so nice) and the setting got me a bit nostalgic... this is what I grew up with.
My summers were spent sleeping on the hay, working the wheat fields, riding the tractor, and playing in the orchards.
Thank you Chudleigh's for a really great day, we'll be back!

In-laws are coming

My In-laws are coming!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, they'll be visiting for entire 2 weeks, I'm worried how that's going to go, it's not that we don't get along, I just don't know them that well. Yes, I know I've been married for a almost 8 years and I don't know my in-laws, crazy!
Well, my hubby left the old country by himself in his early twenties and didn't really look back, they never wanted/couldn't come here - yes, even for our wedding - and he never went back, except once for a week alone. Then when Natalia was 8 months old we all went there, and because we were there for only 2 weeks and because there was lots going on at the time (long story, not worth getting into now) and because my hubby and his parents don't get along well face to face we saw them literary 3-4 times.
Nice, and now they are coming for a visit, wish me luck because I'm going to need it since hubby can't really take anytime off and is gone for days when working I'm going to be the one entertaining them ............
