K fine whatever

So the Readers Digest version of the story is we wanted to go on a picnic Saturday afternoon. So we went to the store got all the stuff and headed over to our favorite park. When we got there there was some kind of Mexican fiesta going on and the place was packed. So Matthew threw a ball baby fit and wanted to go to another park that was Clear across town in the opposite direction. So then I threw a bigger ball baby fit and wanted to stay at the park we were at. Well, surprise surprise (no really I usually get my way) we left that park to go find a "less crowded park" and 15 minutes later we pulled up to this.

At first I was so happy and totally gloating saying Ha you Lame-O this park is a million times worse this is why we always listen to me!But then, once we started walking around it was actually pretty sweet. Bio Life a plasma center was putting on a free Luau for the public that we happened upon and actually, I have to admit was pretty fun.
So moral of the story was Matthew was right but he spent the remainder of the evening telling me why I needed to trust him more and that he had a 'hunch" this park was going to be better blah blah blah. Well he got lucky is what happened. But since I'm not stubborn or prideful I can say we all got lucky. Are you happy Matthew.


I'm undecided how I feel about boys in tank tops. He's pulling it off right?
Who doesn't love a little face painting?!?
Oh please don't even give me that look! I saw who dropped it like twenty five seconds before and they seemed like very nice clean people?
Our friendly friends the Stubbs called us to go to dinner and we were like um hellooo there's some freee semi eatable food at the park for FREE so come get it while it's still cold!

Does this thing look life threatening to anyone? Is there any hidden daggers poking out of it that I'm unaware of? Well, according to Laken it was the most terrifying thing she has ever laid eyes on. I'm talking glazed over eyes the size of bowling bowls and uncontrollable gasps and moans I had no idea she was even capable of making if this yellow dome thing came within 100 yards. I'm not going to lie it was pretty funny. At one point she actually shimmied up Ellen like a monkey in no more then five seconds flat when she caught sight of it across the way.
This is after Matthew had talked her down for about ten minutes. She actually looks happy in this picture compared to when she first saw it. Again, quite funny.
Every person needs an Ellen around. She came down for the weekend and was the handiest thing to have around. Besides the fact that the kids are obsessed with her she makes for some good company.
The girls learned a Hawaiian dance at one booth and I swear it was everything Matthew could do not to join in...aw that's why we love him
Now everyone go donate some plasma.
