laser show.

We took the kids to the laser show on Saturday. We knew we were taking a huge risk keeping the kids up way past their bedtime, but we figured we'd give it a shot.

We loaded down the Bob with our picnic, cooler, blankets, toys, and 2 kiddos and walked at least a mile from our parking spot to the grassy hill overlooking the mountain. We set up shop, ate our dinner, played until we were dripping sweat, climbed rocks, and spent way to much money on glow-in-the-dark chotskies for the kids.

My attempt at a family pic. Check out my kids' faces.


It was tricky trying to contain EK. She really wanted to visit with our neighbors. Keeping her on our quilt proved quite difficult.


Happy boy.


Happy girl.


P had a blast playing on the rocks right behind our spot. I think every kid in the park was playing on those rocks.


I also think every kid in the park wanted the light up light saber that P had. It was so funny to watch a million kids ask P if they could borrow it. He is getting really good at sharing these days, so he actually let a few kids play with it, but you could see the concern on his face when they would run off with it to show their parents. I think he was afraid they wouldn't bring it back. Too funny!


The show didn't start until 9:30pm. EK was already asleep. P was terrified of the fireworks, so I had to hold him the whole time. He ended up conking out in my arms about halfway through the show. It was a late night but a lot of fun. Definitely check it out this year. The special effects that they added to the show make it much better.
