Sunday We Should've Stayed Home

On the second weekend of October, we decided to go over to the Regional Market. We look going to flea markets for boot leg DVDs. Ha. We read the hours wrong and it was closing up. Kids were dissapointed. Lafayette apple fest was going on, but we didn't feel like crowds. 

I suggested Hafners. I knew they did stuff on the weekend and we could get pumpkins.  The place was PACKED. 

We started out making the best of it.  The kids did a free maze thing and then headed to the slide.  Poor Ellie went down it too hard and hurt her leg.  We took turns comforting her while the other tried to navigate the other kids. Ellie calmed down but she didn't want to leave the cart. 

They pet some animals then Adam stared crying about the craft table.  He NEVER acts like that.  Abbey wanted her face painted.  Then we were told they were closing down. What?  I found another face painter and she got a butterfly while Adam drew on a shirt.   We couldn't wait to get out of the crowd.  We took our pumpkins and mums home and headed to Texas Roadhouse.  But ten Ellie couldn't walk. It was awful. We left and I took her to urgent care. 

She hated it.  I think the ER after the accident scarred her. After having to hold her down for x-rays, I was told it wasn't broken.  She passed out on the floor, exhausted.  It took her five days to walk again.  When asked what happened, she'll tell you about the naughty slide.  We should've stayed home that day, I think.
