Saturday at East Coast Park

We decided to take advantage of having a free Saturday before soccer season starts. We packed up our scooters, roller blades, skateboard, and rip stick and headed to East Coast Park on the east side of the island. There is a great trail that runs for miles and miles along the coast. Bryant scootered, Alexa and Ashlyn roller bladed, Breann skateboarded (and rip sticked) and Dallin did rip stick and some roller blading. The kids thought it particularly fun when dad showed them he could skateboard - had to remind them that he was a kids once!
Luckily it was a beautiful day - a little breezy which helps keep the humidity down. We took a break for a while and found a nice spot for some sand playing time.
On the way back down the trail, the kids found some fun trees perfect for climbing.
We ended our Saturday excursion with some dinner at Carl's Jr - a definite treat (at least for mom and dad - the kids wanted KFC next door). So nice to have some 'family time' - something that's hard to come by as the kids get older - and enjoy some outdoor activity.
