Party Hardy

When we decided to stick our children in two different schools on two different sides of Nashville which were also on the other side of town from us I figured I could handle it. Sure it was a lot of driving but I had my system and my timing all figured out. What I forgot to add into the equation was the little things like Holiday parties and after school activities and the like.

Last Friday was my first foray into my children having parties on the same day at different schools.

First was Quinn's Lil' Punkin Parade at Susan Gray. The children all dressed up and trick-or-treated around Vanderbilt's campus ending at Murray house where they had games, coloring and face painting.


Then thankfully my parents were in town and so I dropped Quinn off with them and went shooting over to BGA for Greyson's holiday party filled with arts and crafts, ghoulish goodies like eyeballs (which were cleverly frosted Krispy Kreme donut holes) and a hysterical mummy making contest.

I had a great time and was glad that I could be there for both of my kids, but man this shuffling back and forth is the pits.
