The Best Jumping Place

Avery and Audrey have always loved jumping on Grandpa and Grandma's bed. But the best place to jump now is Papa's bed. Rob has put up a mirror on the wall and the kids can see themselves jumping. They laugh and jump and laugh and jump until they are so tired they just lay there for at least 8 minutes!

HGTV Kid style.

Today (Friday) I spent at Rob's house with Audrey and Avery. We rolled out sugar cookies, cut pumpkins and moons, and baked them. Then we frosted and decorated them. We make candy skelton necklaces, we played the Fairy Game, we had a tea party, we played a doctor game (Audrey did X-rays on me! ), we ate fish stickes and they told me funny jokes - but what the kids loved best was when the contractor came to fix the bathroom ceiling. They were just enthralled. We set up a table and chairs with their snack of crackers & peanut butter and cheese and juice so they could watch every step the guy took. He used a drill with a flash lite. He put up squares of wall board that fit perfectly. He stood on a pail and the bathtub. He was as patient as he could be while the kids pointed out all the details and asked questions. Nothing Grandma did can compare with in house kid style HGTV.
