Jumpin' Sunday

One Sunday morning, you both turned into superheroes. Julia, you had CANDY POWER and a little Sister and the powers of sticky power. You were SWEETHEART (and had socks to match, very cleverly). Aidan, you were FIREHEAD with the power of FIRE, then you were WATERMAN with the power of WATER, then you were CAMO-man, who could camouflage himself, and then finally wound up being STICKYMAN with similar CANDYPOWERS to SWEETHEART.



You were abducted by the villanous BOUNCER and taken to his lair- network of obstacles, tunnels, mechanical bulls, trampolines, and balls to dodge,-so he could steal your crystal power from you and never return it. 

Despite a temporary truce on the dodgeball court, the battle continued through the bouncey afternoon:










Victorious, and kind of forgetting about their super hero identities, the two of you were treated to popsicles- where you seemed to battle eachother for some reason? or maybe you were dancing?- and swimming with the now-reformed villain and his better-half.




And then you moved on to your next challenge: battling the CHESSMASTER!

Super Awesome Snowy Sunny Birthday Weekend

I turned 35 on a Friday. You both didn't have school. So I took the day off. And I am SO glad I did!

Like all good birthday parties, there was face painting (by your Mama)!



Then, for my birthday, obviously, you guys wanted to take me to Jumpstreet! As we left, it started to snow! So we played in the snowflakes, and then bounced a bunch!










By the time we were ready to leave Jumpstreet, it was a bona fide SNOW DAY out there! So we frolicked in the snow even more!


















Mama re-joined us and then we went to dinner all together!


My birthday weekend continued with some amazing fun and food!

There was a trip to the theatre: 




...the playground...



...and a super-duper cool restaurant, which inspired you BOTH to be chefs, called Benihana!






Thank you for a wonderful birthday weekend! You made my wishes come true!

Muddy Puddles


Very rainy night + warm October morning + bad drainage problem at Andy and Penny's house + 2 adventurous, naked, curious kids + Dad camera = 

"Muddy Puddles!"
A 2-hour adventure featuring Aidan and Julia.


Part, the first: Get suited up. If rain boots are not accessible, swim shoes will do.




Part, the second. Locate puddle. Hold Hands. Jump!




Part, the third. Dramatic explorations and discoveries.






Part, the fourth: Surprise visit from neighbors in various states of weather-preparedness.






3...2..1... MUDDY BUDDIES 4 LIFE!
