Play day

Mostly took it easier today. But not entirely.

Took the girls to see Home on the Range. While the girls liked it, I highly discourage it for most adults. Too freakin corny. I mean, of all the movies Disney has sent direct to video, this one should have been on the list. Hint for Disney: Lion King 1.5 goes to big screen; Home on the Range goes to little screen; Result is more cash for you, and more fun for us parents.

Afterwards we went to a park for a bit, followed by a drive around Lake Hefner (the girls wanted to go all the way around the lake like daddy does when he rides). We stopped on the dam for a bit to admire the view.

After seeing all of the people walking/running/blading/riding around the lake, the girls wanted to partake as well. So we scootered/rollerbladed for just a bit (a mile tops, but probably less), then we did a little kite flying nearby until the kite broke (again). But I must reiterate, that kite was quite the big bang for my buck.

We brought bubbles with us, too, and the girls went through a whole bottle each. It's fun "blowing" bubbles by the lake because you don't actually have to blow. It's so windy that you just hold up the little bubble-wand and the wind is your magic bubble maker. We were making so many bubbles that a bunch of other kids around ran over to chase them.

When the girls got tired of that, we visited yet another park until it was dinner time. While I consider today to have been less active than yesterday, with regard to physical exertion, I am just as tired. Guess I can't win in that department. Being tired after a day of anything. Yet another sign of my age peeking out.
