Fun Park Fun Day

The Fun Park is a mini-golf/arcade/bowling alley/go-karts/you get the picture place.  Hence the name, Fun Park.  And it is run by Christian owners, so there is always praise and worship music playing, which makes it a safe place for families.  It is out of town, but not too far of a drive, and it is one of B's favorite places in the world.  He has been wanting to go since before Christmas, and the Hubs told him he would take him over Christmas break.  But then he sprained his ankle and was out of commission over the break, so we decided to take the kids Saturday night.  B wanted to play putt-putt and ride the go-karts, so that is exactly what we did.  And B got his first Hole-In-One!!

C, however, was not interested in playing putt-putt and was done after about one and a half holes.  So I pretty much just chased her around the course trying to keep her from falling into the waterfall until I got some tokens and let her ride one of those little whip-lash inducing kiddy rides three times in a row.

When we finished up at the Fun Park, we headed over for a quick shopping spree at Target, and then we went to dinner at Outback.  The Hubs and I used to go there all the time when we were dating, and we went recently for a date night.  Our experience was not so great and when we politely mentioned it to our server, she told the manager who gave us a $40 gift card on her!  WOW!  We we enjoyed a family meal at Outback for less than $10 out of pocket!  YAY!

I keep those little $1 Play Packs that have a coloring book, crayons, and sheet of stickers in C's diaper bag, and I love to pull them out when we are eating at restaurants to keep the kids entertained until the food arrives.  Coloring doesn't occupy my kids for very long, but they LOVE stickers!  And I have the pictures to prove it.

 They really enjoyed the meal and playing with the stickers.  It was a really fun evening spent with family.
