i'm borded

so since school has been out i have heard nothing but "i'm bored". i tell the kids to read a book, draw a picture or we can play a game. they will even have friends over and still say this. today i got tired of it. they were both (phil & des) downstairs and they were arguing and just being 12. so i had it. i put on some shorts and my tennis shoes and went downstairs and told them to do the same.
we went to the park and we ALL swung and the swings, layed out on a blanket listened to music and played phase 10. we had an amazing time. we were there for almost 3 hours and then the kids from iverson and goldfarb started coming so we decided it was time to leave. it was nice not hearing the "i'm bored" or the fighting. i even bought them ice cram for being so good. we have plans to do it again tomorrow only were bringing lunch and a different game
