A few weeks ago {okay, over a month ago!} the kids and I had an open Friday afternoon, so we finally took the time to go try out the food trucks in Des Moines. Downtown recently got approved to have street vendors, like every other city in America, so we've been dying to try them out! I hardly ever get downtown with the kids, so we had a blast taking it all in. My sister works downtown, so she met us there. We had a lot of fun sharing & comparing a bunch of food. We ended the afternoon at the 'splashpad' downtown. The kids found new friends and ran back and forth in the water for hours. It was a perfectly relaxing summer afternoon.
