Father's Day Weekend 2016

Papa was off from work for Father's Day weekend so we had a busy one! 

Saturday- In the morning, we went to the kids' run. Before the run started, the kids checked out the sponsor tents where they each got a really nice drawstring bag, got to pet a Bearded Dragon,
and make giant bubbles
Papa ran with Pequeño this time and said that Pequeño took off as soon as the horn blew and didn't stop once this time. 
I waited with Pudge for his group to start next.
Then we all cheered for the older group who was finishing and watched the start of Little Bear's group. While we waited for his group to finish, the kids checked out the creek.
Little Bear did a great job!
He was a little upset because he had been bumped into a tree at one busy point in the course which had caused him to fall. 

Afterwards, the kids were given freeze pops and water to cool down. Of course, they had to stop for balloon animals on the way to the car too.
Pequeño got a sword
Pudge got a dog
Little Bear got a crown

They can't wait until their next runs!

We got home around lunch time and spent most of the rest of the day relaxing, cleaning, and playing Foosball.

Sunday-
On Father's Day, the kids let Papa sleep in (which was really hard for them) and then woke him up with their homemade cards and gifts. 
A little while later, Abuelo and Abuela came down to celebrate the day together. First we went to Little Bear's last soccer game of the Spring season (they won!). 

Then after a quick outfit change and potty break, we headed to the promenade to watch Finding Dory in 3D. (The movie was really good and I'm sure that it will be on our list of movies that the kids want to watch over and over).
After that, we had a little bit of time so we  sat outside at Starbucks and called Tio C  while the kids, Abuela, and Papa enjoyed drinks. 
Next, we went to Torre for dinner. Everyone had a great time and we came home with a ton of leftovers as always. The kids had told Abuelo and Abuela about the different icecream that they have there while we were at Starbucks so they were excited for dessert. Abuelo, Little Bear, Papa and Mama all had the avocado icecream, Pudge had coconut icecream, and Abuela and Pequeño had vanilla (although they almost accidentally gave Abuela coconut which she hates!). Pequeño also weaseled some tres leche from Mama and avocado icecream from Abuelo too so he was in bliss. 

Once we were finished with dinner, we walked a little bit and hung out before Abuelo and Abuela had to head back to their house.

Once they left, we went to look for sneakers for the kids only to find that all of those stores had closed a few minutes before. So we decided to look for some hiking gear at L.L. Bean and then take a walk around the promenade. 
 (skipping rocks)

After that, we went to the fish hatchery to feed the fish, bird watch, and then for a nature walk until it got dark.
