Fiesta Fun!

I spent all morning on Labor Day bottle pears with my parents (more on that to come) and the kitchen was a sticky mess.  We decided to take the kids for some fun before doing a work FHE and finishing up the pears.  We had free coupons for Fiesta Fun so we decided to go there and then out to an early dinner.

It was a hot day.  We started by going miniature golfing.  We all cheat because, with the exception of Bryan, we aren't any good at golfing.  Ethan tries but Courtney doesn't really get the "hold the club this way" thing and I just don't have the patience.  We did really well though...for the first 10 holes before the kids got grumpy and were really sweaty.  So we called it a game and walked to the last hole where we dropped our balls in.

We had free tickets to the bumper boats so Courtney and Ethan took a swim.  Ethan had been on them before but Courtney hadn't ever been on the bumper boats and she was tall enough to go by herself!  They were drenched by the time they finished but that cooled them off.

Ethan had brought some of his money so he got tokens for the arcade.  Being a nice brother, he shared them with Courtney.  She likes the motorcycle games but she doesn't lean far enough from side to side to drive well.  Ethan thought he would help her so he stood behind her and pulled on the bike to help her out.  She obviously didn't know who was doing it because she kept yelling "Stop it Dad!!"  It was hilarious because it was Ethan the entire time.  But it shows who is usually the tease in the family.  She ended up in 4th place!
