Coast Guard Day #219

Yes, a mere 219 years ago, the Coast Guard was created, so of course there has to be a party! Zachary had a prior engagement, so we dropped Alex off with Phil with plans to meet up later. Little did Alex know, he was going to be put to work.

I'm sure Alex didn't consider vacuuming the floor work, after all, it involves pushing something. Paper shuffling on the other hand looks a little intense!
After a bit of work, they did scope out the activities and played some carnival games (and won some really cool bubbles!) and took a turn in the bouncy house.
When Zachary and I returned, we all met up for lunch and of course, birthday cake! We all explored the informational tents and then the boys had a chance to row a whale boat.
After all of the outdoor fun, we took our popcorn back to Phil's office to rest before heading home. Phil recently moved into a new building, so Zachary had a chance to crawl around and cause mischief in a new space (Alex had already explored and knew the lay of the land). Then, our new explorer, Zachary, climbed up onto the back of the stroller, prompting Alex to crawl into the front seat. Zachary is becoming quite a brave adventurer...and he isn't walking yet. Oh no!
