Ice Cream Deals & A Summer Wishlist

Another BEAUTIFUL day today! So much time spent outside
(which of course means less for me to clean! :-) )


Took G & C to the park and because they were SO good and the weather was so nice we headed over to Baskkin-Robbins and found out they were have a huge sale on ice cream- Guest Appreciation Week!
Since the weather is supposed to nice for the next couple of days take advantage of this great deal! (Although they say one scoop cone- they allowed me to put it in a cup for the kids since it's easier to eat that way and ended up being a nice size serving for both kids!)

Before we headed to the park while C was napping, G and I composed a list of things he wanted to do this summer so I'm sharing with you! I think I'll be making this poster sized with check boxes so that as we complete an activity we can check it off! I'll be making a similar list with the other boys, K & T, and I'll post that and we can compare the two lists!

Day of Sunshine & Outings

Today was a rare day in Washington, it was sunny and warm during the spring. I think when I drove by a bank it said it was 57 degrees out! SO, the boys and I definitely took advantage of the sunshine! We waited for T to get home from school and do a little homework so we weren't able to get out until about 4:45 but the weather was still nice (but we did wear hoodies to keep us warm from the wind).

We headed down to Mike N Terry's (otherwise known as the Putting Zoo) to play some Mini Golf. It was decently priced for the three of us at $16.25. If you go on a Monday or Tuesday and bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the local food shelter it's half off a round! We didn't keep score and we went through this course really fast (they have two different golf courses) but the boys still had a blast doing something different!

Afterwards we went next door to Paintball Sports Park.  The boys are too young to actually play but they were able to go into the shooting range by themselves and just shoot at the targets! (They wouldn't normally be allowed to do this because you have to be at least 10 years old to actually play but I work there on the weekend and my boyfriend manages the field.) They had SO much fun I had to tear them away! I mean what boys don't want to shoot guns and have them make a mess??
We left having had a lot of fun, but if we go back next time I would make a full day out of it! Give the boys enough time to actually play golf and play both courses, which they had wanted to do today. They also have go-karts at Mike N Terry's and I promised them next time they would be able to ride them and buy popcorn from the concession stand! :)
