The Bouncy Place

Jadyn got to go on a field trip with her school to The Bouncy Place in Kent. It was a great way to get all of our energy out before lunch. And even better...Karina was able to go, too! We all had a lot of fun braving the huge, very fast slides. It is nice to know that we have a fairly close by place to go on all of those rainy days we have so often.Here is Jadyn with a couple of her good friends, Lauren and Alyson, getting ready to go down together. Karina giving this snail some extra love.

Finally!

Karina's hair is long enough to put in one little braid...and she will actually let us! Good times!

Fun, fun, fun!

We went (and survived) our first birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's last night. Despite the fact that the place was packed to capacity, (they were actually turning people away at the door) the girls had a blast dancing and playing all of the "free" games. They even got to take home princess cups, which I am sure we will be using at every meal until they wear out.The best highlight for me happened on the way home, though, when my sweet Jadyn decided: "It was lots of fun to play at Chuck E Cheese's, but I don't want my birthday there. I like to be at home and play with my friends better. I can hear things there."

Most of the party clan: Jordan, Jadyn, Isabella,

Karina, Haley, and a random girl that really wanted to join us

Thank you for inviting us to your fun party, Haley. Happy 4th birthday!

Mmmm...mmmm...good!

The girls had their official first lesson on how to make Grandpa's Spaghetti Sauce. They were so excited to help Daddy make it. They only had a hard time when it came to waiting the entire day to get to try it out. But, boy is it worth the wait! Check out Foree Family Photos for more pictures...

Caught!

We now know the real reason we can't seem to grow anything but sticks in our backyard...

This little one is awfully cute for a landscape-destroyer, though.
