Wawa

We have had a busy weekend out and about...and its not over yet.
Yesterday after Kyle was done working we went to Auburn so Kyle could do some gun accessory shopping. 
Today we started out at the flea market here on Fort Lewis. Really, not impressive, I felt like if we bought anything there we might end up with some fleas. After wandering around a bit there, we went into Tacoma to an airsoft place to drop of Kyle's airsoft gun that needs some repairs. We ate a disappointing lunch at Wendy's (at least the frosty was good), then headed into Seattle. We went to Outdoor Emporium , which was lots of fun. We spent a good couple hours in there until our kids were just completely finished with it all. We got some stuff for Kyle's fly fishing, and did a lot of looking and things that we want to do some price comparision on.
We got back in the car and started home. After about 5 minutes in the car everyone was unhappy. Kyle and I decided that the day hadn't really been fair to the kids as they had been trapped in either their carseat or stroller.
So thanks to our handy-dandy GPS were we at the waterfront and a park within about 15 minutes. It wasn't the best part ever, but it had a slide and offered plenty of entertainment for us, plus it is always nice to be by the water. We were there for about an hour and half playing and enjoying a bit of the sunshine.
Back in the car we went, and within five minutes all my boys were fast asleep. I made a quick stop for pizza at Papa Murphy's and stopped at Home Depot for weather stripping.
Then we were home sweet home.
It was a fun but busy day.
Here are a few pictures for our visit at the park.
Gunnar's new word is water, which sounds a little more like "wawa" when he says it. We have to stop and look at everything water oriented. So being by a large body of water and in a rainy area with lots of mud puddles, you can imagine how quickly we get anywhere.
 Ryker and I. He is such a happy boy and smiles at everyone, I have been so blessed with such happy kiddos.

You said your busy weekend wasn't over what was on your agenda today?
We went to another standing room only event . . . this time we didn't have to stand. Good thing I don't think I would enjoy standing for an hour and a half funeral! Had lots of fun with the 3 boys later this afternoon until about 5 minutes ago. Wish all 5 would have been here! We love our boys!!!!!!!
