I don't know why I would even bother posting about going to a bounce house place because all the pictures are of the kids tiny backs as they try to climb up big, colorful, inflatable things. But here I am posting about it anyway. This past weekend we took the kids to a local bounce house place...on a Saturday!!! Yes, it was kind of crowded. But the kids still had fun. Here's John. They had a little toddler place he could play but he wouldn't crawl in there when I gave him the opportunity. He'll enjoy this more when he's a little older.

The most popular inflatable was the giant slide. Grant must have gone on it 30 times.
Here are Anna and Matthew going down the slide together (on the right)
Here is Grant (red shirt) climbing the ladder. He got better at it the more practice he got. The first time I think Matthew helped him a little by pushing him from behind, but after a few trips up, he got the hang of it and could do it himself. Grant learned a lot about taking turns and how to wait in a line for your turn. So that was good. One time he was about to come down when the dressed up mascot of the bounce house, Monkey Joe, came and stood at the bottom of his slide. He was afraid to go down, but went down anyway and then cried as he climbed off the slide trying to get away from Monkey Joe. Poor Grant. In spite of the terrifying run in with a giant monkey, he still had fun. And he used up lots of energy climbing that ladder. Everyone was extra tired that night. Mission accomplished.
