On Saturday Nascar was at the Capitol. We thought why not bring the kids and a lunch and make a day of it. So we did. We started with a small parade of cars followed by activities for the kids. Bubbles, Coloring, Jumphouses, Face/Arm Painting, etc. The weather was nice and the price perfect...FREE. We also packed our lunch for a picnic in the Capitol Park also...FREE. Watching the kids chase and yell at the squirrels and birds in the park...Priceless. Okay sorry I couldn't resist. Anyways we had a great time and here are some pictures to prove it. (I promise someday I will get a program that makes collages so my posts aren't so long)
Here comes the "Parade" of cars
The Family right after the cars passed
Jill next to the smallest Nascar I have ever seen
Many vendors there: River Cats (kids did not like him so much) Jelly Belly (kids liked them they gave away free jelly beans) Discovery Kingdom (brought a penguin and snake)
Mason test driving the remote control cars
Lucas showing off his flames he had painted
Jill showing off her flower
Mason tried to wait for the painting it just took a little to long for him
At the park the kids had a blast. Jill would run to the trees and yell PEANUTS. She thought the squirrels were just going to come and get them.
Jill with all her peanuts, she was never empty handed for long
Mason pretending to be Grandpa
This rock had 3 good size holes in it. Once Cale found it he never left it. I was putting anything he could find in them. Once the other kids saw the fun it was a party at the "Holey Rock"
