We were going to have one last little trip as a family yesterday but the weather wasn't great so we decided to stay close to home and just have a day of fun. We started off with pizza buffet at the The Rock, then headed over to a place called Charlie's Safari. This is in Olympia which really isn't too far away. My sister took her kids there and told us all about it. They really had a great time. Shaylyn was the perfect age but they all really liked it. It actually was a pretty good deal if you stay there for the day. They have a little mini golf course, jumpy toys, a huge jungle gym with a ton of different slides and a little place to shoot baskets, they have lazer tag which Shay did but I probably wouldn't do it if she was much younger and it was at a slow time so it was just the 5 of us. They have a snack bar and an arcade. They even have a parents lounge which is a kid free zone but is full of windows so you can watch your kids with a little peace and quiet. You can get the unlimited wristband for $24.95 so they can do everything except the arcade. If your in it for the day that is the best way to go. It was also very clean I thought compared to like Chuck E. Cheeses or the Odyssey. It really was a fun day for them. I brought a book so that helped:)

A Day of Fun
We also took a break about five and walked next door and went to see a movie. The Rock, Charlie's Safari and a Regal Theater were all in a row in this complex. We went and saw "Journey to the Center of the Earth" in 3-D. It was a really good movie, a little unbelievable but the kids loved it. It had some great 3-D effects. Chance and Austin loved it, Shaylyn didn't like to wear the glasses but she hung in there. And just a warning, they charge you extra for the 3-D glasses but you have to have them in order for the movie not to be blurry. It was over all a good day. I love my kids and I am happy we could have this fun day but I am also happy for school in 6 days :)
