Castle Park and spending money

All summer the kids have been asking to go to Castle Park.  They love to play tag and hide and seek at Castle Park more than any other park.  We got to the park early so it wasn't to hot.  The the joy of Castle Park was gone.  The boys didn't last very long playing.  They got bored and were ready to leave after only about an hour of playing.  The girls were only interested in swinging on the swings.  They loved the swings and were good to take turns.  We will have to try the park out again with cousins and see if that will help the fun.  Then we went to Dairy Queen for lunch.  The kids all got slushies and dilly bars with their meals, best happy meals ever.  Then we to spend the kids birthday and allowance earnings.  The kids don't usually have their own money so they were excited to get to buy whatever they wanted.  Britton bought a spy kit with lasers, Parker bought a bow and arrow set, Brynlee bought a My Little Pony and Abby bought a Ariel barbie doll.  Bryson spent his money a few weeks ago so he was a good sport to help everyone else decide on what they should buy.  Later that night we had a movie night and sleepover in the family room.  We watched Hugo.  The boys loved the show but the girls weren't to engagaed.  Abby was confused and thought it was a little scary.  Bryson cried a couple of times because it was sad.  We had a great day.  We love summer.
