Exploring Sea Scape Kids' Fun!!

Danni had a ball... literally!

I was very serious about my work... filling the ball blaster.

Explaining the physics of the Blaster!

She loved the obstacle course!

My tongue helps me do everything these days... even sliding down the giant bouncey slide!


Danni found a pink shooter that was just her size!!  :)


Guess which Beast wasn't too happy about leaving?!


Mommy, Danni, and I tried out a new play place called Sea Scape Kids' Fun ... it's an ocean-themed indoor playground that has a room of bouncers and a room that is a giant 3-story play structure, complete with ball shooters, bridges, and slides!!  We REALLY liked visiting a new place ... Danni didn't want to leave!!  :)

John's Incredible FUN!

She's ready for pizza and games!!!

I was excited too!! 

Our friends came to play too...  no one would be still at the same time for a photo..  but this is close!

She didn't care that the Up & Down was broken!

Danni and some friends took a drife!

Gracie got a little annoyed with all of the horn honking and siren blaring that I did...  so did the rest of the place!  ;)

She liked the 'banana horsie' too...  (he was yellow)

Taking a crazy truck ride with my girl!

Not quite sure this is the proper bowling technique... but it worked!

STRIKE!!!!!

Still smiling after hours of playtime!

A rare (and very peaceful) occurrence!  (Mommy takes it as a sign of a successful day!)  :)
It's Thanksgiving Break!!!  Mommy and her friends decided to get together for a day of fun at John's Incredible Pizza!!!  We enjoyed a delicious lunch of pizza and mac and cheese, and then spent a looong time playing games!!  We all REALLY loved the mini bowling alley there!!!!  On the way home, both Danni and I conked out in the car (something that NEVER happens!!!)  Mommy knew then that we had a GREAT time!!!  I'm SO happy that Christmas break is only 3 weeks away!!  Hopefully, we can do this again!!!  :)

Happy Birthday, Tristan!

Danni and the birthday boy!

My girlfriend came to party with me!

We had fun destroying the playroom!

Her first encounter with a pink hostess cupcake!

Batman came to the party too.  I wasn't a fan.  'He's not a nice guy.'

I took it out on him later!!  (Notice the beginnings of a leg amputation!)

Danni was stabbing people with her balloon sword!
My friend Tristan turned five and celebrated with a super cool Batman party!  Batman himself made an appearance ... and terrified me!  Mommy protected me while he played games and gave tattoos to the other kids.  I was much happier when he left!  After that, I had a fantastic time beating on the pinata and stuffing myself with tons of treats!!  Thanks, Tristan, for a fabulous celebration!

Thanksgiving Feast!

Marching to the Feast with my fellow pilgrims!

Happy little preschool pilgrim!

Sitting patiently with my class!

Feasts are FUN!

A savage Beast tried to swipe my food!

Is it time to eat yet?!
My preschool hosted a Thanksgiving Feast for all of the students!  Nearly 400 of us crowded into the fellowship hall to enjoy a full turkey dinner...  mashed potatoes, stuffing, rolls, and pumpkin pie!  (But no one brought ketchup!!)  ;)  Mommy and Daddy were super impressed with how well everyone behaved!  All of the kids sat quietly and patiently and used nice manners!!!  (Maybe I will remember how to behave when the 'real' Thanksgiving dinner rolls around!  :)

Happy 1st Birthday, Autumn!!

Ready or not, here we come!!!

Putting our silly party faces on!

Getting our bounce on!

You bounce higher when you open your mouth super wide!

Airborne babies!

Danni loved bouncing on her tummy!

Crazy-haired bouncer girl!

Just plain CRAZY!

We LOVE to bounce!

Taking a break for some Mommy-loves!

Danni played the ring toss game!

She was super-gentle with the pinata.  It was too pretty to break!

... but no one was sad when the cupcake was destroyed!  LOTS of yumminess inside!
Danni and I celebrated Autumn Faith's first birthday with a FUN party!!!  The highlight for us was the HUGE bouncer house!!!  We spent hours perfecting our jumperizing form ... and our giggles!  :)   We emerged from the bouncer to devour the delicious cupcakes, play some games, and raid the pinata!  What a great way to celebrate Autumn's first year of fun!!!  Next year, she'll be able to bounce with us!

Pretend City Invaders!

Danni wants a pink car just like this when she grows up!

I worked all of the buttons in the sound booth....


Cheek-lickin' good bbq!!

Danni and I had a blast raking and watering in the 'garden'...

Mommy has never seen me so up-sided about vegetables before!

Danni caught a fish with her bare hands!

She loved the air blower!

Working hard on blocking the water!!

It's a phone?!  WITH a cord?!

She's a future Science nerd... just like Mommy!

I built a tower as tall as I am!

Tonguesterizing had been proven to help with construction!!

Ready for her moment onstage!

Working the mic .... (hopefully the last time I'll be onstage with chicks without their pants on!)

Mommy, Danni, and I visited Pretend City in Irvine for a day of play!  Danni and I just love that we can get our hands all over everything AND run all over the place without getting in trouble!  :)   Our favorite part was the water table!  Danni enjoyed bare-handed fishing (and splashing!)  ....  I worked with my architectural talents to build water-blocking walls!
