DAY 6 BOONDOCK MARATHON

MAIN EVENT: Boondocks

We spent a great (and exhausting) day at the Boondocks today. We bought passes for unlimited Laser Tag, Bumper Boats, Go Karts, Miniature Golf and Kiddie Cove (like McDonald's Playland only bigger and better). We also got lots of tokens with the package and played video games that spit out tickets at lightening speed. Grant was pretty funny during our mini-golf game. He'd hit the ball and then run and pick it up and move to the next hole. He also spent his time examining rocks and kicking other people's balls. He liked the Kiddie Cove and played in there for quite a while until at some point he lost interest and ran around and around a column outside the cove. He's so entertaining and exhausting to watch.

SERVICE PROJECT: Sweeping sidewalks. Since there weren't enough brooms, Alex used a snow shovel. Don't think it helped much but he did.

QUIET ACTIVITY-none. We went back to Boondocks since we payed a pretty penny for our passes, which were good for all day.

DINNER: We got around to eating our barbecued pork and chicken at around 8:30 pm. I don't think we've ever eaten that late-ever.

I can't believe Carl's energy levels. He didn't have any kind of down time yesterday. I, on the other hand snuck some piano time while Grant was supposed to be down for a nap (didn't work) during the Service Project and then again while Carl was barbecuing. So after all the kids were in bed at 10pm (totally off schedule) I found Carl doing stuff for work. Maybe its because we are on vacation and so he's enjoying everything we're doing and doesn't feel exhausted. I, who am pretty exhausted at this point, am in awe of his energy and hard work.
