In trying to keep with my resolution with the kids to do something special at least once a month, I decided that Sunday was the day. I fished gift cards out of my purse and made a plan that would keep the price low but the fun level acceptable to my group of crazies. We ended up with Jamba Juice first. The Jamba Juice in Belmar is a nice location. It's nested amongst my kind of retail shops and a nice clean store and very nice staff. In fact, I was incredibly impressed with my cashier/smoothie barista (if you will). The Aloha Pineapple smoothie was amazing and the kids all loved theirs as well.
We headed off to Taco Bell next. I can't say I was happy with the wait that we endured there (ten minute sitting in the parking lot waiting for someone to bring out our completely NORMAL order) but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that 12:15 on a Sunday wasn't a good time to come in. See how that sarcasm is dripping. I think they were underprepared but the food was good and I got my nacho cheese fix.
Then we embarked on a trip to Walmart to choose a game. I am in love with the SuperWalmart in the Belmar area. Self checkouts, nice staff, clean location and always has what I want. It's quickly becoming my new Walmart location. We ended up choosing "Guesstures". We also chose a treat to eat with our game.
So after dinner last night, we cleaned up and started playing the game. I don't think we stopped laughing the whole time. My impression of a duck had the kids rolling and their responses/guesses to things were cracking me up. "It's a zombie.....a butterfly.....". Special monthly fun WIN!
