Spring Break 2009 - Chuck E. Cheese Edition

The extended Walcott Family celebrates lots of birthdays in April. This week we were so thrilled to celebrate with our nephew and neice, Braden and Reina, at Chuck E. Cheese. Neither Jon nor I had been to a place like this since our youth. We weren't quite sure what to expect. I assumed Bright was too little to really enjoy the place, but I was so wrong. We all had so much fun. He was so hyper when we got home that he was up nearly two hours past his bed time.

Happy Birthday Braden and Reina!

I'm so proud :)

Spring Break 2009 - Pool Edition

Bright had never been swimming until this past weekend at the indoor waterpark at the Best Western Sterling Inn. We spent time in the splash park and the "big kids" pool. We were worried on day one, but he become more and more fond of the water each time we were there. During our last visit to the pool he was having a blast for quite some time and then even while his teeth were chattering. We're glad he loves the water, and look forward to a great summer of more water fun.

Spring Break 2009 - Arctic Edition

This past Saturday we spent a good part of the day at the Detroit Zoo. Brighton did end up sleeping through a good portion of it, but Rob & Lisa met us there. The five of us had a great time, and we especially enjoyed their Arctic Ring of Life Exhibit - polar bears & seals. We heard on more than one occassion that we were getting a good show from the polar bears, and we totally agreed. Jon was able to capture some of these experiences on camera - all picture credits go to him.
