Fun times

The school held a barbecue for the parents and afterwards we could meet the teachers and see our kids’ work.  My son was so proud of what he had done!

Getting them to go home took forever.  They jumped until dark.

 

Bum Bash

Over time I have realised my kids are a little on the weird side.  (That’s ok though, I am confident somewhere in the world there is at least one mom who feels the same about her kids!)  So be warned, some of these expressions are a little… well… funky.

The boys call this the ‘Bum Bash’.

I think this trampoline is going to save my sanity when the kids are bored!  Even the youngest got the hang of jumping really fast.

 

Even my hubby couldn’t resist!

(I resisted the urge to post the image of him shaking his bum at me… I would like him to keep speaking to me!)

A Jumping Day

Early this morning, just after the boys left for school, there was a knock on the door.  I was still in my pjs (luckily with a robe) and I was changing my daughter, so she was half dressed.  The delivery man had come!  So there I was, duck and diving, hoping the neighbours didn’t see me showing the delivery man where to put the huge box.

So, today, I spent most of it attaching springs to our new trampoline!  The kids LOVED their surprise, kept checking with me that it was really ours to keep.

I will post some more photos tomorrow.  The kids had a blast in the 30 minutes they had before dark.

Jumping For Joy – I Heart Faces Challenge

During the weekend church camp, all kids  had such a blast jumping on the trampolines.  This little one was a real ball of energy.  He has absolute blast jumping and trying to do somersaults.  (Why do young boys have no fear?) He is three years old, a real cutie!

Seagulls at Bayside

Sunday was another picnic, this time at the beach at Bayside, Melbourne.  The number of seagulls was astonishing. 

My younger son threw left-over bread for them, jumping in the air each time to get the bread higher.

My very serious, very concerned with his image, older son let go and started chasing gulls again.

The kids had some fun on the playground that is built like a stranded ship.

My youngest son started to feel lonely, but his sister came to cheer him up.

 

With the sun starting to set, it was time to move on.
