We have really been enjoying this nice weather in February. During a cold winter, it is quite a treat when it is nice enough to have a picnic and play in the park. So, we headed to town to the Glenwood Lake Park with our picnic basket full and a blanket. The girls were so excited to get to have a "picpic". It was a little chilly (we still needed jackets) but it was nice to again get a little fresh air. After lunch we walked over to the play area and the girls got to slide and run around. It will be a lot of fun this year because Clara is old enough to play on the playground and go down the slides (and I didn't see her try to eat one rock this time!!) We played for quite a while and the kids had a really fun time. I am looking forward to this summer and lots of trips to the park! When Dain got home later that afternoon, we decided to take the kids to the Amazing Pizza Machine. Emily has been talking about going to Chucky Cheese nonstop for about a month, so we decided to try the pizza machine because we had never been there and there is a lot more to do there. We had coupons for a free buffet, which ended up being a good thing because the food was not that good and we didn't eat that much. Actually, I got up from the table still hungry but didn't care to go back and look for something else. I think if we go again I will stick to the salad bar. Dain took the girls over the game area while I stayed back to feed Nile...he was getting quite hungry and wasn't going to have any fun playing games until he ate! We then headed over and joined the fam. The girls were having a good time already. Emily got to ride the frog hopper (which she talked about for days after) and the "roller coaster" (once with Daddy and once with Mommy). Clara was not quite tall enough to ride the bigger rides (maybe next time). They have a little kids area that the girls had a lot of fun playing in. There was a carousel horse and a few other little kids games to play also. All in all the "Pizza Washing Machine" (as Emily kept calling it) was a success. We had a really fun day packed with kid activities!!
