Family part 2

Family

First Day of School

The first day of school was August 20th. We now have a kindergartener and a 3rd grader. Yikes! When did they grow up so fast?!? And yes, our cat wanted to be in the pictures too.

Fun City 3

 That's Audrey coming down the slide. Really.

Fun City 2

We played a lot of arcade games, since the company gave us "free" money to spend. They each cost money to play, then you earn tickets which can be redeemed at the prize shop. The girls each came home with several items of infinite importance to them such as stuffed animals, puzzles, and the like.

  Aaron and Audrey enjoyed playing Deal or No Deal. Never did win the big case though....

Mindy enjoyed playing Doodle Jump, which was one of the few games requiring actual skill to play. She even beat the game and got on the leaderboard at #7. Winning this game = 1,000 tickets!

 Abby loved the squirrel bubble popping game. It was just her size and just her skill level.

Aaron also won this game a few times, receiving the 609 tickets shown there.

Fun City 2013

Aaron's workplace puts on a party at Fun City in Burlington every year. Well, every year for the last 2 years that we have been a part of it.

Hill Phoenix specialty products rents the whole facility out for us. This is a huge indoor/outdoor waterpark, arcade, go carts, bowling, candy shop, (casino which we did not go to), restaurants, gift shop, and hotel. We stayed overnight and enjoyed the water both days. The company provides all meals, ice cream break, t-shirts for everyone, and $100 toward arcade games and/or bowling in the form of prepaid gift cards. This was our last big fling before school started in August.

 Think she's having fun?

 Audrey demonstrated her swimming skills with the backfloat.

 Abby loved sliding out the pelican's mouth.

This bucket would steadily fill and empty, surprising swimmers with a 

550 gallon drop of water every so often!
