Family Fun Day

All day Peyton has referred to yesterday as "Family Fun Day". Apparently it was a hit. We are always looking for new fun (inexpensive) things to do here in Kitsap county and at times, we're at a loss. However we heard about this park in Bremerton by the Ferry. It is between the Ferry terminal and the shipyard, very hidden from plain site. It has fountains that kids can play in when the weather is warm and rocks and things to climb on. We hopped on the little foot ferry in downtown Port Orchard ($2 per person, kids under age 6 are free), went across and had a picnic lunch at the park and just had a nice time, except for Macy being afraid of the fountains that "blow" like a whale spout every few minutes. After that we rode the foot ferry back and headed to the swimming pool for the kids to swim. It was an inexpensive way to get out and do something as a family. All in all we spent less than $20 (ferries plus swimming) for a fun evening out. I recommend it. Here are a couple pictures taken from my camera phone...sorry bad quality.Those big things behind the kids are where the water shoots out from. I tried to capture it, but my timing was off. Will be lots of fun in the summer when we can actually get wet!

Spring break was sure fun, kids had sleepovers and just a plain old relaxing time without homework and tight schedules. I am a bit sad that it is ending, but ready to get back in a routine.

One last picture before I go...we saw Monsters vs. Aliens movie last week in 3D at the NEW Uptown Gig Harbor Theater (stadium seating makes every seat a good one, plus they have 3D and Port Orchard cinema does not), It was a great movie, even Macy wore the glasses for a good while.
