Sci-Tech Playdate

Cade and I met Celena and Luke at Sci-Tech Discovery Center one morning for a playdate. It got us all out of the house and kept everyone pretty entertained. The boys have grown so much! It was a fun morning togeher!

Cade, Luke, Celena, Jake and me :)

The boys were too small to stand up and look through the astronaut outfit.  (ha) Couple more years boys!!!

This reminded Celena and I of the Plinko game on The Price is Right!  It showed how the probability of all the balls falling down from the top will end up mostly in the middle and form a bell curve.

Little hands and minds in action...discovery stations.

Making BIG BUBBLES!!!

Celena showed the kids how it was done! Great job, Momma!!

Baby Jake was so good! He hung in there and did a little discovery himself!

The boys found the leggo station and made leggo cars to race with each other! Big hit!!

Not sure what happened to Cade's car but looks like he is improvising with a big tire (haha).

And the Parachute Pulley! Fun Times!

While we were there they had story time. The kids listened to a story, learned about the heart and made a heart bead craft.

Fun times at the Science Museum! Can't wait to visit and play again soon!!!

Jax turns 3 !

Our nephew Jax turned 3 in January. Brian and Jessica said Jax requested a dinosaur party....and a dino party he got! It was so super stinkin cute and lots of fun!  Love this little man! So fun to have him so close in age to Lily and Cade. Great job on the party, Jessica! What a sweet mama you are!!

And great job, Brian on keeping the kids entertained and wound up :)  (haha)

Cutest Dinosaurs I've ever seen!!!

Roar, Roar, Little Dinosaur!

Would you look at that dessert table! Since it IS a kids party, we'll start with dessert first (ha).

Jessica made these dino cake pops! Super stinkin cute!!!

Brian put the icing on the heads....he got a little creative with a few of them (ha)

The Dino Food Table

There was plenty of opportunity for a dino photo op! Lily really got into this part!!!

Herd - o - Dinosaurs!!!

And a giant bounce house kept adults and kids bouncing around the whole afternoon!

A little Dino - pinata!   Who's going to take the first swing??

Since Brian doesn't have any treed in the back yard he held the pinata from the roof.  He gave the kids a run for their money, that's for sure! He would raise it up everytime they would swing the stick. No blindfold needed when Brian's around! (haha)

Look at his feet dangling over the rooftop! So crazy!!!

A little Dino- ride in the jeep!

Mom brought Sophie up. The kids couldn't wait to see her again. She was all decked out for the party with a pink and brown bow with rhinestones! Mom is cracking us up these days!

ROAR!!!!!

Brian-o-saurus and Jack-o-raptor

Chris got a little Sophie time in too!

A - Cade-o-saurus!

L-Rex !

Jax's Aunt Sue! She baked 80 cookies for the party AND made the dinosaur tails! She also keeps Jax a couple of days a week! She is his angel! So sweet!

Time to blow the candles out!

Jax and Cade playing with some of his birthday presents! 

Loved spending the day together! So much fun! Can't wait until next year!!!
