"Family Fun"

This year for Christmas, David's parents gave each of their children "Family Fun" money. We all got the same amount of money, some scrapbook supplies, and a disposable camera. We were told to use the money on family activities and take pictures of what we did. Afterward, we scrapbook the pages and give them to David's parents who will put together a big Martin Family Fun book! Fun huh? So while we were in Tucson last week, we spent our Family Fun money Here's what we did!


The Tucson Children's Museum



At first, Caroline was a little scared of the Dinosaur room, but that never lasts long for our adventureous little one! (double-click on the picture to see a classic "dinosaur face"!)


Caroline and her cousin, Brandon, loved the fire truck! They got to dress up in firemen clothes and climb on a real fire truck cab!




Caroline's favorite part was definately the miniature supermarket/kitchen/restaurant. The kids take their shopping cart and fill it with play food, check out at the register, cook it in the kitchen, then serve it in the restaurant - so fun! I think she could've stayed there all day!


The Reid Park Zoo



It was a busy day at the zoo, but we had a great time, and perfect weather!




We got to feed the giraffes which was very cool! (special thanks to Caroline's uncle Andrew for being our photographer!)




We also went to Chuck E Cheese with my brother Joe, his wife, Brooke, and their two cute little boys. The kids had a great time and the adults...well, at Chuck E Cheese's, the adults are just happy that the kids are happy! Sorry, no pictures of C.E.C. - I figured you all knew what it looks like!
