Going Bonkers

There are rarely places where you can take 2 year olds where they will have a blast and not get trampled by bigger kids. They are just two tiny people ya know.

Anyway, thanks to my mom, we found Bonkers close to her house.  We thought why not.  Lets give it a try and see how the kids do.  If they hate it, were out $5, really only $5 for all 3 of us to get in.

Lets just say they LOVED it.  They stuck close to each other for the first few minutes, like they always do, then they took off in different directions always keeping an eye on each other, like they always do.  Heres what I could get before my camera died, like it always does.

Does anyone know hard it is to get 2 kids to look at the camera at the same time?  Im sure you do.

Elyse look here.

 Hello, over here.

Oh oh oh so close

 

Oh screw it, thats as close as its getting.

We then went to the 2 and under area for them to slide.  The almost love sliding as much as swinging, almost.

I think she might want to be in the circus one day, she walked this tightrope thing for about 20 minutes.

And of course I had to join in the fun.

And look at these two, so cute.

Hes not that much taller than her, hes on his tip toes.

I cant believe how big they are getting.

This place was awesome and we will defiantly be going back.

Wordless Wednesday

Cousins are like sisters

It is no secret that me and my sister did NOT get along growing up.  We still butt heads now, but weve moved pass the let-me-throw-you-in-the-trash-can-because-your-being-a-snot phase  (true story)  I have always wondered that if when we both had kids, if the kids would get along.

We all headed Canton last weekend and the girls were so sweet.  All the kids were in strollers and Cheyenne would yell "Mommy go to Elyse"  Danielle would push her closer and they would hold hands.  When one of us slowed down, one of the girls would  say speed up I want to hold you.  They would then get even and hold each othters hands again.  I guess they like each other.

*Note*
They are red because it was 100 degrees not from a sunburn.  When we got them in the AC and they returned to their natural paleness.

*Note*
Does Cole look like Gilligan?  He kept looking at the 2 of them holding hands and I can only imagine him thinking "Yall are crazy"

Anyone want a drink?

Im sure Cole will share with you too.

8 years already?

Im a little behind because of Christmas, but I hope to catch up pretty quickly.

On December 21, 2002 we were married.  (That sounds retarded but I dont know another way to say it)  I cant believe that the time has flown by so quickly.  It seems not that long ago, its flown by.

Because we our Anniversary is so close to Christmas, we decided  (well I did) that we do not gifts, per say.  Instead of random gifts, we go by the traditional wedding gifts.  This website is what we usually go by, but most lists are the same, give or tack.

This year, number 8, was bronze/pottery.  HARD  Doesnt seem that way but think bout it. He doesnt garden, any cooking appliance would be used by me and he does NOT want to go throw clay with me.  (Apparently its only a girl thing to want to re-enact the scene out of Ghost)

So heres what I did.  I bought a pot and some seeds.  He always says he wants to grow herbs....well there you go.  Done and Done. 

He got me a gift certificate to go to a ladys night to throw pots and get a massage.  (Told you he didnt want to go, but I do so he got it for me)  Hes always good at gifts, I suck most of the time.

In addition to these gifts, we go out to eat.  THEN he surprised me by a whole lot.

We went out to eat and ate dessert.  Cheesecake, come on I cant say no to cheesecake.

Then we went to ALOFT, which is a hotel like the W but not as pricey.

The Bar

Looks Tasty

The Bed

The Sink

(Not sure what my deal with sinks is, but I like this one)

THEN he secluded massages.

Oh yea, that happened.

He did good.

Can you feel the love?

Hugs for everyone :)
