Bouncin' Bears

Joc had told me about this new bouncing place that recently opened near Tomball, so we decided to venture out and try it. She showed up with her 4 kiddos under 3 and I showed up with my 4 under 8. Yep...that's right....2 mommas/aunt and 8 kids under the age of 8.

Total chaos. Total fun.

We were the only ones there for a while - which was great. The kids just went in all directions and we (J&I) followed and marveled in the smiles and laughter heard through the place.

The place did get busy as birthday parties arrived throughout the day. J and kids stayed for about an hour and a half, but I was watching the girls ALL day, so my goal was to stay there as long as possible. The girls bounced, played, jumped, and climbed for 3 1/2 hours. I couldn't believe it. I even ventured out into some of the bounce houses and slid down some slides. (We won't talk about how sore I was the next day though, ok.)

I asked Isabela to look at me and smile...Tiger turned super fast and flashed this cheesy grin. Gotta love it!

We had such a great time playing with our cousins and friends!  Best $5 spent for sure!

3 1/2 hours later, we returned to our house for lunch and nap time.  I put in a movie and this is what I had for the next 2 hours!

Ahhhhhh.....heaven!  Some peace and quiet. 2 whole hours, I tell ya!  Momma/CC like :)

Thankfully the weather was a bit overcast and not squelching hot outside, so we spent the remainder of our time outside and played some more.  Those 4 girls love, love, love the sandbox.  I love how Gabriela, at the age of 8, still loves to play outside in the sand with her sisters and cousin.

It was a full day of fun and I crashed as soon as the girls left. Man, I'm too old for all this activity! ;)
