On our first day we went to a new indoor playground that had trampolines and playground sets. Timothy loved the trampolines and Teresa liked the monkey bars. There were new and different swings, basketball hoops and soccer and football areas too. Lots of fun!!
After the playground it was on to the zoo. The weather was beautiful and it was not busy on a Thursday. The only bummer were lots of bees--one of which gave Teresa her first bee sting at our picnic lunch. We got to see some lions and even a cub that did not look so small anymore. Timothy liked feeding the goats some leaves.
And the favorite part was an interactive sand table that showed the movement of water as you changed the landscape. They spent more than 30 minutes playing with that!
After dinner entertainment was the green spotlights in the hallway. It does not take much to make the kids happy!
The next day I do not have pictures from, but it was busy too. The morning was spent at another indoor playground. The kids pretty much had the place to themselves! In the afternoon, we went shopping at the dollar store with Aunt Mary and helped buy some things for shoe boxes. Then we went to an outdoor playground and found lots of monkey bars and a roller style slide that we used to have in Grand Forks. That kept them busy for a good long while.
Before our pizza dinner, we played some Halloween games like, ring the pumpkin, and toss the ball in the pumpkin, as well as a few other games.
It really was a fun weekend, with so much to do and time to spend with Aunt Mary. Of course it was sad to leave on Saturday, but we are thankful for all the good memories!
