Two Fun Days in a Row!








Yesterday we went to Pork's Discovery (Keeley's name for Port Discovery!) It was loads of fun, right up until the LAST second. You know when they CLOSE? The boys just don't understand that yet... well mostly Keeley at this point. I went down the slide with Keeley this time and bumped my head at the bottom--not a lot of fun. Last time I was there Aiden talked me into going through that AWFUL drain pipe. Never again I tell you, never again. It actually hurt my knees going over those ropes inside. I MUST be too old to enjoy things like that anymore.

And unfortunately the zip line was broken and no one could ride on it. And, as Aiden announced to me, he is just now tall enough to get on it himself. Oh well, maybe next time. Aiden spent a significant amount of time in the water room getting SOAKED all down his front. Pants actually dripping wet. I suggested to one of the staff members that they get a see through dryer so people could strip and dry their clothes. (Educational and useful, especially in the winter!!) But her reply was, "well, it would probably be broken more than it worked." So, I guess that's the theme there? I got a few shots of Keeley and Aiden riding "Keeley's" horse!!

Our friends Faith, Easy, Malilah, and Zola met us there. Good thing too, 'cause we tag-teamed all afternoon. It was fun!

And today when we woke up it was SNOWING!! Keeley immediately started asking if we could go outside to play, but we waited until Aiden woke up so he could enjoy it too. We all went outside to build a snowman. The snow is heavy and wet, so it balled up really easily. It was that snow that actually gets bigger as you roll it? I've never seen that really happen, but it did. Made a big heavy snowman that the boys chopped down with their snow shovels right after it was finished.

Now they're downstairs drinking hot chocolate deciding whether or not they want to get all their clothes back on so they can build another snowman to chop down. Boys!

Stay warm and enjoy this wintery weather!

Love and Light,
