Gloomy fun day!!

We woke up today knowing we had to go to Tukwilla to pick up Scott's car. So, in order to make an adventure out of the drive, we decided to extend it a little and take the kids to PD Zoo and Aquarium or hit the Northwest Trek. We got all packed up... snacks, drinks, blankets, warm clothes, camera, money... you name it, we were ready. As soon as we got past Seattle, hail! Snow! Pouring rain... We were a little disappointed, but decided to make the most of it. Matt is really into trains right now, so why not take him on the monorail to West Lake center and back?? He gets a "train ride," Marc gets to go on the inside rides, Scott gets to pick whatever he wants to eat for lunch, and me - well, I get to go to WLC!! I love to shop, but those who know me, know that already. Our day of crappy weather was awesome and even nice enough for the kids to get some outside rides in too. Word of advice - buy your kids a kazoo from the EMP at the END of your day, not seconds after you arrive....

The kazoo...

Outside the EMP
Matty thought this was pretty frikin' cool. Marc, not so much

Matty and Daddy

The ticket taker guy told me "Dat is why only one go a time!" Oops!

Marry-go-round or as Matty called it. "The princess horses"

Also thought this was lame... poor Marc, he's such a good sport

This was pretty fast and fun for them

In motion..........

Love these guys!!

And last but not least, last night - the year of 30 is among us, and these 5 are keepin' it real!!
