Pump It Up

Last week we went to Pump It Up with my friend's playgroup. The girls got to see some of their friends they haven't seen for awhile and had such a great time. They can't wait to go back again and this time, take their dad with them. Kelsey keeps planning this for family night, but has been sadly disappointed because Dave doesn't seem all that excited about the whole thing!!

Head first!! She has no fear, I love it. After this she was at the top with a friend of mine and she was laying on her side. Fortunately Heidi talked her out of going down that way since she would probably end up rolling down, rather than sliding down.

For Katelyn's first run she decided to take it easy, but after that it was all over.

I love these few pictures that my friend took of her two girls and Kelsey. We tried to get Katelyn in the mix, but as soon as she climbed up, there was no waiting at the top for anyone else and she was right back down again!!

They had such a great time, they only wished they could have stayed longer. But what kid wouldn't?!

Calico Basin

Last week for playgroup, we headed out to Calico Basin near Red Rock Canyon for some hiking and a picnic lunch. There were quite a few short easy trails that were perfect for the kids and definitely some place we will have to take Dave back too. We had a pretty small showing, but still had a great time with everyone that came. Although it was pretty windy up there, we all still had a great time, not to mention the kids got a great work out and were able to get out some of their energy. The girls had a great time and can't wait to go back again. We invited our cousin Vance to come with and were so excited to run around and climb on the rocks with him too. Thanks for coming out, Kimber.

Our first stop near a small joshua tree.

Finally we got to some rocks they could climb all over.

Lied Discovery Museum

With Dave being out of town for 4 days, I had to come up with some fun things to keep the girls busy. We went to Lied Discovery Museum on Friday with a massive playgroup and the girls had such a blast. Having never been, it was all new and they loved every minute of it.

Don't they look cute? Kelsey's friend Paige refused to get in the picture but still so cute

Katelyn and her friend Kate playing dress up. Of course when Kesley and Paige came over, Katelyn was done and already moving on to the next thing.

Kelsey trying to twirl in a dress that was too long.

Here's Kelsey at one of the bubble set ups. She was fascinated by this station.

It was great and a fun time had by all.

Wishing I had my camera

Today we went to Zone 1 for play group. It's an indoor inflatable play arena with bouncers, slides, a bounce trampoline, and obstacle courses. Katelyn wasn't quite sure of everything at first, but she *jumped* right in following after Kelsey. They had such a great time and I'm almost as worn out as they are. In rushing out the door, I walked off without my camera so no pictures, but still such a great time. It got a little crazy towards the end with all the kids, but they weren't about to let that stop them. They are already asking when we can go back again.
