Jump Day

We had a playdate with Krissi, Gavin and Blakely at a nearby jumping place.  The kids had a fabulous time and since it was Blue Friday they were decked out in their Hawks Finest!

Lucy loved this car
Going through a tunnel
A ball pit for the little ones
Big trampolines for the over 3 set (Lucy was quite bummed she couldn't play on them)

They were in heaven with the basketball shoot place


Running and jumping into a huge foam pit

Happy 90th Birthday Great-Grandpa CJ

We had a fabulous time getting to celebrate Great Grandpa CJs 90th birthday.  Nana Diane and her sisters threw a wonderful party at their club and it was a drop in event in which a ton of people showed up to celebrate Grandpa.
Auntie Kelsey and the cousins came which was awesome because it was the first time Jaydon and Piper got to really play together, she was 9 months old the last time they met.

We broke out the game of Hiss at one point
Then the kids favorite part of the event - CAKE!
It was great to see so many family members and get to enjoy time reconnecting, although it was brief it was a wonderful party.

Seahawks Rally

We are big Seahawks fans and Jaydon has definitely become obsessed the past two seasons, Lucy also gets in on the action saying "Go Hawks" whenever she seems the logo.  So I decided we would head down to the big rally before our first play off game.  The kids and I had a great time.
Jaydon doesn't look all that enthused but he got into the spirit.  Lucy loved her hot dot that was bigger than her head.

A Seahawks car
A Seahawks kitty, so awesome, it reminded me of how Higgins will travel on shoulders wearing a leash/harness combo.  This kitties name is Meowshawn Lynch!
Jaydon got to meet Blitz!  Lucy was very adamant about staying in my arms and not getting too close.


Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman posed for a photo with Jaydon!
The three of us being 12s
Go Hawks!

Jaydon made this sign by himself!  It has been in our front window now for months.
After the rally I took the kids to a nearby park to burn off a little energy before driving back home, it was a great outing!

A visit with Papa

And I continue my trend of really bad pictures but I am just trying to create a memory for my family to go back to so I will keep including them - sorry!

Papa got to swing by for a short visit on his way back from MN to AK, we were so lucky to get to see him even if it was for just one evening.  The kids were in heaven and they had to have some naked running time followed by story time with Papa!  


Reading a fun story titled Press Here we highly recommend it!

Seattle Center

I finally got to go adventuring too and we headed to the Seattle Center.  It was a fun trip.  We first went to the IMAX and saw some Hubble space telescope stuff, it was cute to see the kids trying to reach out and touch the stars as they went by in 3-D
We went to the kid area and played a bit
