Great Kids Village

On Sunday, we decided to go to a place called Great Kids Village. We went there last year when Ryan and the girls came to visit. The kids had a good time then, so we thought we'd go back again. Ryan, Kate, and their families decided to eat lunch at the cafe there, so we came a little later. They were still eating when we arrived, so I took Peyton (aka Mr. Impatient) to play while Kyle and Hunter stayed in the cafe and chatted with the others.

Peyton began his day playing with the wooden trains. I made him wear the conductor hat.
Next, he found the ball pit. Balls are still one of his favorite things to play with, so he had a blast in there.
We walked over to the grocery store next. Peyton picked out lots of fruits, vegetables, and other yummy treats for his shopping cart.

Then he went to the kitchen area to cook with his groceries.

Peyton wanted to check out these giant Tinkertoys next. I'm not sure what he was trying to build, but he had a good time.

Hunter was having lots of fun too... He actually did wake up before we left for home.

Peyton and Daddy built a castle out of these huge foam blocks. Peyton calls anything that he builds a "castle."

We checked out the big sand box next. I even played in the sand with Peyton. He tried a few times to build an actual sand castle, but obviously the sand would not hold any shape because it was dry. He just played with all of the other toys instead.

Noah and Kate played in the sandbox too.

Next, we went to the sports room. After a rousing game of Foosball, Peyton decided that he wanted to play putt-putt. He was pretty good.

The last room that we checked out before we left was the music room. Here is my little Beethoven. He loves to play instruments and sing.

There were about a million more pictures, but I thought that these were enough. All of the kids had fun at Great Kids Village. It definitely is a place for all ages to have a good time. Everyone went back to our house to eat dinner and hang out a little more. Becky fed Hunter while Sara checked him out. She gave him kisses too!

We tried to take a cousins picture. This one is ok, but I think others might have captured a better picture. The kids did sit still and allow the paparazzi to take their pictures.

Then Sara wanted to hold Hunter.

And then Lindsey wanted to hold him too.

Ryan and Becky brought Peyton and Hunter gifts. Peyton got a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse coloring book.

And Hunter got two outfits and a "Little Brother" onesie. All three things were super cute.

We made chicken nuggets for the kids for dinner and the adults ate tacos. Peyton, Lindsey, and Sara must have been hungry because they each ate all of their chicken nuggets and then a taco too. Lindsey and Sara made cookies with Aunt Kate for everyone to eat for dessert. They were yummy. We hung out a little while longer after dinner, and then Kate and Ryan headed back to Kate's house. Ryan and his family left to go home on Monday. It was good visiting with everyone!
