Super Saturday

Maybe it was because we forgot it was St Patrick's day.
Maybe it was because we didn't wear green, any of us.
Maybe it was because we are just THAT GOOD at planning fun stuff.
The fact is, we had a super Saturday that is worthy of a post...  

Destination #1: Children's Museum
RESULT: Huge parade in front of the museum (and a sudden realization that we forgot it was a holiday) and a thousand people all around.  Let's change our destination.
Destination #2: Jump Place (Shayne had purchased passes through a groupon deal)
RESULT: Closed for private parties all day
Destination #3: Home for naptime... 
RESULT: whew, a little 3 year old in our house needed that!
Destination #4: Local Rec Center to swim
RESULT: "Sorry, but we are closing in 20 minutes, are you sure you want to pay to swim?"  (and lots of tears too)
Destination #5: Movie Night at home
RESULT: Daddy had to drive 2 towns over to get the desired movie, then left it in the shopping cart.

LUCKILY, he remembered before driving away.  

Did I mention we tried to take the boys sledding two weeks ago and ended up driving for nearly 2 hours looking for a hill with snow?  We ended up at Arctic Circle eating corn dogs...

Yeah, we're awesome.

Oh, man - what a day! You should have called us about sledding - there were excellent hills up near us. Oh well. Our schedules have been so out of sync lately.

And the movie on top of all that? Oh man! What a day!

"Shayne had purchased passes through a groupon deal"

I don't know why, but this made me laugh.
