Groupon to the Rescue

Back in the fall we spent $30 on $100 worth of Castle Fun Park money.  It was a neat family night out!  One that we wouldn't have spent $100 on but was still fun to spend $100 worth!

Bit of mini golfing...
Lots of road racing :)
The good old "frogger".  I def remember doing this in our family living room with a joy stick and the old commoder 64 (??) when I wasn't much older than Cara nearly 30 years ago.
Batting cages - a huge hit ;)  Best part of that was probably when Cody knocked our socks off by taking a few wild swings to get into the swing of things and then proceeding to nail nearly every ball!! 
Maybe Cara's best part of the night was the remote control boats behind the batting cages.  I don't think I'll ever understand some things in life!
It might be a while (and another groupon) before we do that again but SO much fun!

Cowgirl Cookies

A couple weeks ago Cara went to a birthday party and came home with the neatest craft!

Cookies in a jar.  Take the mix and pour into a bowl...
Add a slightly beaten egg....
some melted margarine, vanilla, and....
Mix it all up!

Such a great thing to send home for easy cookie making time with a sweet daughter!!!  She was so delighted to do most of it herself.  Many thanks to Cara's friend Amy and her mom.  
Mostly her mom because she had to put up with the mess in getting the jars ready to go home!!!
