jumpin'

This morning we headed up to Loveland to meet the Merrill's for some fun at the bouncy house. There's a place called Jumpin' by them and it was a huge hit. Our girls love the bouncy houses and this one was gigantic! There were tons of bouncy houses, slides, playhouses, and even basketball hoops. Besides a few birthday parties, the girls had their run of the place.

Gwyneth and Ivy are our adventurous girls. They show no fear. At one point B saw a little booty climbing through the playhouse window and said "Cmon GG, use the door". Much to his surprise it was actually Ivy! These girls are going to have some fun and give their poor daddies heart attacks.

Ella is now 5 and Annabelle just idolizes her. She follows her around and always wants to be near her. They are two peas in a pod also. Girlie girls who love to dance. At one point, Ella needed to use the potty and I watched her twirl her way to the bathroom. It was adorable and simply suited her little personality. Ella and I raced several times down the slide and she won everytime which she pointed out, but I kept our secret that she always took off on 2 rather than 3. I'm not a sore loser with such a cutie, I swear. She must be very sweet and cute, because I'd NEVER let my girls win...that's right NEVER!

We all grabbed lunch afterwards at the kid-friendly mecca, Red Robin. After a 45 minute car ride and almost 2 hours of jump, jump, jumping the girls were miraculously so good at lunch. Miss Annabelle got a bit antsy and actually stabbed Gwyneth with a fork at one point, but there was no blood-shed and they came out holding hands so we're calling it a victory. The girls had so much fun with their pals and B and I were glad to have the opportunity to catch up with Seth and Katie. They have the sweetest girls and we look forward to many more adventures with them this summer.

Sweet little girlie girl Ella. I learned her motto is basically 'if it's not pink, don't even think about it'.

Gwyneth Grace - blocking the window or the exit as its better known to our climbers!
Annabelle can jump all day! This girl loves a bouncy house. Last night she was fighting bedtime and I said 'if you go to sleep right now we'll go to the bouncy house tomorrow'. She grabbed her bear and her blanket, jumped off the couch and said "goodnight". She didn't even want us to tuck her in! She was out for the night. That is true love!
Little Ivy just leaning back, relaxing, and rocking the bouncy house! She looks too cool for school....
I like to think that B and Seth are discussing how they're going to get the kids out and how they're going to take over this jumpy castle....
