A Man With A Plan

We love babies in our house....

and with a face like this who wouldn't.

We love the smiles and giggles. We love to see them learn new skills.

But now we are loving having boys a bit older who can do more advanced things.

Chris had been to Bahrain a few time while we were in AK for the summer. He scoped out some things and has been excited to take us back....especially the bigger boys.


Our first stop was an "Oh So Chris Thing,"

a

Chocolate Cafe.

There were SO MANY delightful things to try. We all ordered something different and shared.

The workers loved having the boys in there and were sneaking them marshmallows before we had even ordered.

After the boys needed to work up a good sweat and burn off some calories.

This was Chris' secret surprise for the boys.

It is not a jungle gym but a ball gym.

It has cannons and guns you can load with small soft balls.

It has machines that will such up the balls and spray them into the air.

You can attach your bag to a vacuum and suck up the balls instead of picking them up individually.

Gizmos that blow air and will keep balls suspended in air.

It was the perfect mixture of fun for my 3 older boys

Everyone got along and they left happy and sweaty.

While Graham and I watched the older boys we saw this ride and I knew what I wanted to do next.

Even though it was a kid ride it had some good drops.

It quickly became the ride to do....

over and over and over.

You can't see it with the phone camera but there are HUGE grins and shrieks of laughter coming from all 3.

Graham thought it was pretty fun to watch too.
