Playing Hooky


Today was pretty much awesome, from head to toe. We started with breakfast with gramma, Grumma great and grampa. Then we went down to the parade.
 Calvin and I rode on the baby float, it was fun. Then dad picked me up and volunteered to sit with the kids while I ran to Costco, he also bathed Calvin and shooed me away when I tried to help, then he put him down for his nap. Awesome.
When I got back we packed up and drove up to LOGAN! We made it there without incident and went to my favorite park ever. It has tons of huge trees and a shallow stream.

My awesome and attentive brothers met us there, we played for an hour and a half. Eliza got filthy, they threw rocks, built a dam, ate some crackers.
Late lunch/early dinner at Jimmy Johns to see our cousin.
Baths, wrestling and games at BKE.
Then we went to the Fun Center in Logan, we went there in February, the last time we came up to play hooky and had a good time. We got a bunch of tokens and ran around like crazy. Then this happened:
Anna put 4 tokens into what was basically a slot machine for kids, she landed on the Bonus and got 1000 tickets! It was amazing! Though for some reason she did not try that machine again. When we cashed in it took us probably 20 minutes of picking out prizes to spend our 1500+ tickets. We got SO MANY cheap crappy toys and candy, totally got my money's worth. Including mustaches that we tried on as we went to get sno cones!


After sno cones we said good bye, the kids ate more candy and eventually fell asleep, we made it home safe and sound and exhausted. 


The car is so jammed full of toys and candy that I did not even try to bring anything other than children in the house, we will sort through it all tomorrow

Big thanks to Gramma and Grampa for making the morning manageable and to Uncles Thad and Matt for playing with us! Such a good day.
