I've heard of people having fun activities and things to do in their neighborhood for National Night Out. We never know about it until the end of the day then it's too late! This year it was advertised that our cute town was holding a celebration at the park. We decided to check it out! They had lots of free activities for the kids to do like face painting, jumpy houses, Lowe's had wood working projects. There was even a smoothie place that had 2 stationary bikes set up. They attached a blender to the bike and you had to pedal to mix it! Then they gave it to you for free!
Our plan was to stay and watch Big Hero 6 in the park on the big screen but Johnny forgot to bring his pack back which I had packed the little girls and my sweatshirts in and it was getting chilly. It still stays light here pretty late and they hadn't started the movie when left at 9pm so I think we made a good call not to stay.
We were impressed with the fun things to do and it wasn't super packed! Anytime we attended anything in Puyallup there were so many people and it was always crazy. One of the perks of living in a smaller city. :)
Opal started to get fussy because she was bored. Lucky for her someone was handing out suckers. She was a sticky mess by the end but she was happy!
The theme of the night was all about being safe and active. They had a course set up for the kids to ride a bike through. They made them stop at a stop sign (which Johnny blew right through!), at one point them had to stop and try to describe the guy they just rode past, then throw a newspaper in to a bucket while riding (which Addie nailed!).
I love Opal's face in the picture on the left. Typical Opal face when she is yelling at the kids to leave her alone!
