Shooting, Monsters and Aliens

Yesterday's Spring Break activities included:
shooting practice with dad.
All of us got to participate.
First things first: eye and ear protection for everyone.

After placing targets a couple hundred yards away,
we first tried out the rifle.
The kids did great. All shots were
pretty close to the bullseye, in a straight line.

London got to try shooting the bb gun at a can.
She was happy.
Next stop for her, concealed weapons course. :)

We felt like cowboys (and girls)
right out of the old west.


Jordan had to give it a try,
though the bb gun was more her pace.

Doug showed us all what a marksman he is.


After that excitement,

we decided to take a little trip to GJ

to see Monsters vs. Aliens - in 3D.

It's worth the extra price for the 3D. It was pretty cool.
The kids loved it. And the glasses.

By unanimous request

we had a delicious dinner at one of my favorite places,

(OK, I had to twist a couple of arms. But McDonald's? Come on.)

Red Lobster. Mmmm!

It was a great end to a fun day
and
a pretty good spring break.

Actually, we didn't HAVE to take the kids to the movie, we wanted to, and it was great! We would recommend it to anybody that ENJOYS HAVING FUN WITH THE KIDS.
