An Outing Turns Into An Adventure!!

This morning, my good friend, Mara, her adorable little boy, Landon and Haylie and I decided to go on an outing! Nothing too exciting...just a bus ride to the campus book store. The bus stop is right by our mailbox and every time Haylie sees a bus she says, "Haylie go bus!", so I thought she would enjoy it. The outing was going great! We caught the bus, rode it without any hiccups to campus. We went to the book store, let Landon and Haylie pick out a toy and some skittles, waved to Liza and decided to catch the bus home and get some lunch. So..we walked to the bus stop, waited, and got on a bus. No worries...everything was under control. Then...

The bus passed our stop! Oh no! We were on the CITY bus, not the campus bus! Mara and I sat and stared at each other, mouths open, trying to figure out what to do and finally decided that we we just going to have to get off , rather than end up in no-man's-land, and walk the couple of miles back home. Hopefully the two toddler's legs would make it!

Thanks to our sugar rush from the skittles the mommies and babies are home safe! I still can't believe Landon and Haylie walked the whole way! Such little troopers! We had a blast just laughing and walking...and walking...and walking! Needless to say, we will never make that mistake again!!

And that, my friends, is how a simple little outing becomes an adventure!!!
