Rainy Days

Where did summer go? It came and teased us then bam! it was gone again. It's been so cold and rainy the last few days. Caleb's baseball games and awards banquet were cancelled and the boys have been going crazy being cooped up in the house. By noon yesterday they were fighting like crazy and driving me and Mike both up a wall, so we decided that an outing it what we needed. We finally decided to head to the Living Planet Aquarium since we hadn't been there to see the penguins yet. But when we got there, it was packed. Apparently everyone else had the same idea. People we parking blocks away just to get in so we abandoned that idea and went to the closest fun place. Chuck E Cheese. That place is usually also a mess on Saturdays but since everyone was at the aquarium we got right in and got to playing with ease. Caleb has always enjoyed going and this is the first time Zaric really got the idea of rides and things. He was in heaven. We couldn't get him off one ride to the next and he just kept going back for more. Zaden was afraid of most of the rides and all of the people so he stayed in Dad's arms most of the time we were there. He did get out a couple times and rode the car ride with Zaric but that was about it. It's so funny how different those two are sometimes. It was a nice little unexpected outing but I think we all had a good time and it was a good way to kill a couple hours away from the house. And I am happy to report that upon arriving home and taking a nap all 3 boys were behaving and getting along. It's amazing what a little Chuck E Cheese time can do.
