Fun with Friends

Sometimes getting together with friends when you all have small kids can be a bit challenging.  On this particular trip we had been working to get together with them for months.  But when we could get together we decided to do something that would make our 4 kids (4 years and under) would enjoy so we could visit while they were playing.  So we decided to take them to an indoor bounce place.  These places are crazy with huge slides, obstacle courses, bounce houses, and basically every chance to wear out your kids....and yourself (because often when the bouncies are too big your kids do not back down...you just have to go in too lol)  But we had a blast!
 AJ chilling on the side after bouncing himself crazy

 Jake climbing up a GIANT slide...
 ...and then getting a big scared at the top and so our friend Alea went down with him :)
 This picture makes me laugh because AJ looks a bit panic-y, AJ LOVED this slide and had Ryan and I taking turns taking him on it over and over and over...so of course the picture we get does not show his pure joy.
 "I've got this"
 This is a terrible picture but it really shows AJ's attitude toward life...he dives into everything without fear and head first...then we have to go after him.  :)
 We have gotten so many pictures of these two as they have grown up.  Jake and Victoria are buddies and they had such a great time at the bounce place and then at BJs for dinner.
 Their little brothers (AJ and Christian) are just building their friendship
 Jake's first Pizzookie...yes he loved it :)
My two little Spidermen 
 This amazes me.  Jake is mostly a crazy man in his coloring style...but sometimes he colors like this...it just amazes me!
 Jake is very serious when it comes to making one of his favorite meals...Peanut Butter and Jelly :)
 What on earth can be getting AJ to sit this still???
 Ah yes, Mickey Mouse..it all makes sense now :)
 Now this may look like an adorable picture of my boys loving on each other...but I assure you...I caught them wrestling...something they like to do often now.
 We finally let Jake have his first pair of scissors...he loves them and if allowed will cut everything in site. :)
 ...which comes in handy for shredding junk mail
bye for now  :)
