Vasona Park

These two pictures are of the GIANT hill that I have to climb while pushing a fully loaded double jogger and over 60 pounds of kids. Why do you ask?  Because I want to save $6.00.  yep, all that work huffing and puffing just to save $6.00.  
James hanging out in the choo choo...not the train we wanted to ride but that train was closed for the day. bummer for the kids.  Actually, the biggest bummer is that Alyssa made a decision to hit Amelia so I had to take the carousel ride away.  She could still ride the carousel but not the train. On the way to the park, Amelia pinched Alyssa and so I had to take her carousel ride away.  The train ride is the real reason we all went anyway but I had to take something away.  Last week we went and I forgot to take cash so no train ride for the kids. I promised we would come back this week and well, their not so good choices made them miss out.  Joke was on them because when we arrived to the park we found out that the train ride was down for the day and the only mechanical ride operating was the carousel.. They begged and pleaded but I meant what I said.  No carousel ride.  They were bummed but oh well.  Shouldn't beat each other up.  ;)  
Unfortunately, Ryan got hungry right before play time and fell asleep! 
This is one of my favorite times with the kids...just watching them play and all get along.  Pretty soon the boys will be arguing just like the girls...;)  but like siblings, at the end of the day the love is there.
