Not many people are as cool as I am. They call this "mini-golf" instead of the correct term, which is of course, "putt-putt." (And now you know. You're welcome!)
Today was the first time we armed the kiddos with golf clubs, and we weren't disappointed. It was hilarious to watch. McKenzie really used her hips and swung with gusto, only hitting one ball into the water.
Parker just ran with the ball, hitting it numerous times until he reached the hole. He was constantly ahead of us, yelling for us to hurry up and join him!
I was impressed Parker was excited to go on the airplanes. Just a few months ago he was terrified of a similar ride at Jungle Jim's and refused to get on it. It probably helped that McKenzie was able to ride with him, but he's still much braver than he was.
I thought this was a sweet picture. This place (Trafalga in Lehi) was definitely geared towards little kids - I think I would use the word "dinky" to describe a lot of things, but the kids had a blast. Kenzie rode the go-karts with me and cheered the entire time (although they were a little fast for Parker - he spent his ride with his face buried in Daddy's shoulder!) Still, he told me, "I just have a good day!" and he cried to leave, so we'll have to take them back soon!
Ah, what a fun time of year. Thank you Grandma Susan for the goofy lips!
We carved pumpkins last night, and Parker dictated, "Triangle eyes, triangle nose, and mouth!" He was very happy, and then wanted to take a picture with him making a scary face.
Kenzie needed to make a scary face, too, of course. She picked the largest pumpkin, and determined she'd make it a rabbit. (Don't tell her it looks more like a cat, since she's happy!)
Isn't this cute? (I do mean my family, not just the pumpkins). We had to stick the pumpkins on the back porch for now, since there's been several pumpkin-smashing incidents in the neighborhood. Better to keep them safe.
Happy Halloween!!
