spring break '09 and catching up...

spring break has come and gone, but we sure did have a great time together as a family! monday was spent at the children's museum. the science and discovery zone was our favorite. kenley and jarrett both had a great time learning, playing, and discovering all sorts of fascinating things throughout the museum. tuesday we enjoyed ourselves at jump n play in avon. this is an indoor inflatable family play center that was lots of fun for all of us! guess what our total admission cost was???? $7...what a small price to pay for a great day of fun! we got a lot of play time in as there weren't too many people there. kenley had a blast jumping, sliding, climbing, and playing. jarrett enjoyed a few trips down the slides, but didn't so much like to crawl around in the toddler bounce area. he sure did love to watch all of the excitement though! chad and i had a great time being "kids" with our kids! wednesday we went to the indy zoo. the weather was great, altough slightly chilly with the wind. kenley and jarrett were facinated with all of the animals. one of the highlights was the dolphin show. kenley loved watching the dolphins do their tricks and she had fun showing off her dance moves as the music played. jarrett enjoyed all of the excitement as well. the car rides also turned out to be an enjoyable experience. both kids did a great job during the drives. they are both at such a fun age right now as they are interacting and playing more together. the highlight of our travel time was listening to both of our kids laughing and giggling with each other over what seemed to be nothing but the shear joy of laughter!! what a heartwarming sound that was...it was priceless!

Looks like you had a great time! That is what we are planning to do this summer for our "vacation" We are just going to find all the little gems right here in Indiana. We are also going to Connersville for the train ride, maybe even when Thomas is there :) We may check out the place in Avon--looks fun :)
