A day for the kids

Monday, February 25th, 2008

When this past weekend rolled around, relaxation and fun were on the agenda.  So with this in mind, we headed forth to the place for kids… KIDSTOWN!

It’s quite a drive for us to get to Kidstown, and at first mention of it, Jack wasn’t interested in going.  But after some persuasion we managed to convince him that it would be worth the travel in the car.

We last visited Kidstown around 12 months ago, and had a fabulous time.  So with Annie a little older, and Jack a little more able to cope with the environment, this visit was set to be a blast!

And so it was!!

Here are some of the many photos we took:

To start with Jack was a bit nervous - Steve and Annie are waiting at the bottom to catch him (going down on his tummy this time).

These slides are great for grown ups too!

But then it gets too exciting and she just has to go fast!!!

Finding our way through the maze!

We had such a wonderful time - we haven’t laughed and played together like we did at Kidstown for such a long time!!  It reminded us of what we need to do more of!

So when the time came to climb back into the car and drive home, we had 2 very weary, but very happy kids… actually make that 4 happy kids… parents get to be kids at places like this too!!
