It was a good day for the start of Summer of Fun. Even the kids are calling it "the Incredible Summer of Fun," which I think is great. You'd think it would be a lot of pressure to keep up with a name like that, but I laugh in the face of pressure. What could be more fun than summer?
We went to Tunnel Voyage and had the place nearly to ourselves. School was out at noon (or 10:30, if you're a high schooler, and likely not headed to Tunnel Voyage), so I think we beat the rush. After just 20 minutes or so, it looked like I had doused Sam with water—he was drenched in sweat by the time his girlfriends got there. I was so embarrassed/disgusted, but it didn't seem to bother him, or the girls at all. Go figure. At least he's not smelly, someone told me. I guess. How could that be? Even Kate was playing hard with her new friends. Afterwards: Mexican food. Yum. I am pretty sure that the staff at La Fuente will be happy if we never return, but all in all the kids did really well. Next up: OOF for us, and Deanna Rose for the big group in 2 weeks.
As if that wasn't enough fun for one day, we also went to Chuck E. Cheese. Really, it was a day full of parental sacrifice, neither Tunnel Voyage nor CEC having a lot to offer the mother set. The kids had a great time though, and it was good to finally use those coupons that they put in the paper about every 2 weeks, as if anyone goes that often. Okay, I hope no one does. Some guy came in just to get the pizza to go. Seriously? Is it that good? I'm sure someone else delivers pizza without the extra $10 charge for tokens and general kiddie craziness. Whatever.
It's officially summer for the Matthews' kids. Woo!
