Our trip to the City!

With the weather being so hot this summer, we thought it would be a fun day to go down to the City to visit MawMaw. MawMaw works in a building right next to the City Garden so what a perfect day to spend.
First we headed to pick up PawPaw then off to the Metrolink we go. Here we are waiting for the Metrolink to get there.

Finally on our way riding on the "train" as the kids call it.

Once we got down there we headed out to eat lunch at Charlie Gittos since I have never been there. Let me tell you that this was the best pasta I have ever had! Yummy!

We headed back to my mom's work building so the kids could meet everyone in her office and change into their swimsuits.
Now its time for some water fun! And these kids had THE BEST time playing in the water. They wanted to go swimming in a few of the fountains, but my mom said she has seen too many homeless people taking baths in the water and it kinda grossed me out......I might have even thrown up a bit in my mouth thinking of my kids playing in the water and possibly drinking it with the nastiness of it plus there is no clorine to clean it at all......yuck! So we stuck with the water shooting out of the ground.







Now it was time for a break and yummy ice cream! They had this little truck out there selling ice cream.....how cute is that!

Joey definitely approved of it!

Before we headed out, we went to play over with the sculptures for a bit.



It was a very fun day. My mom drove us back to the Metrolink station but I drove home alone since my boys both crashed out before we made it to my car. I can't wait to do this again next year!
