Bouncy Bouncy

We spent the afternoon at Mr. Froggs bounce houses and the kids loved it!

Grandma and Ellie taking a break to read
They not only had a huge assortment of bounce houses but they also had a few train tables and houses to play in.
Waiting our turn to get into the house
Logan was a little unsure of the bounce houses and was in and out quickly
Ellie LOVED them, she thought it was the greatest thing ever

Looks like we will be coming back soon!

Lot's of Bugs

Pretend City had an event for pass-holder's so we got to spend a few hours there. It was a bug theme and they had all kinds of bugs to touch and look at.

Daddy giving detailed facts on all the bugs
We got to make visors only I forgot to put a bow in Ellie's hair so she wanted to use the cutouts.
We played dress up
Ellie's wondering why she doesn't have her own couch at home
Logan cleaned up before we went home
And we left with our balloon bugs

Good Luck Aunt Kelli

Aunt Kelli is off to boot camp and we are going to miss her SO much! We celebrated her last few days with a brunch over at Grandma and Grandpa Case's.

The food was great!

It didn't take long before all the kids were off and playing

Ellie loves her big cousin Emma
Shooting position... led to a slam dunk!
Good Luck Aunt Kelli! We know you will be successful in every challenge given to you. We look forward to your return and will miss you so much!

Fun With Friends

This was my friend and neighbor Adrina and myself back in August of 09. She was also pregnant with boy/girl twins and she delivered exactly 14 days before me.

Now they get to play together!
Her son Shawn above and daughter Anna below.
We had lots of snacks
We colored and ran all around the backyard

Then we had lunch. Can't wait to hang out again!

Farmer's Market

We took a walk to the local farmers market this morning and had fun picking out some fruits and vegetables.

Slightly over exposed photo's :( Shooting on manuel takes a lot of practice.
But we loved sampling everything!
