Bouncing was a blast!

"...and a little child will lead them..."
ISAIAH 11:6

We had a very fun day today in Austin.
We took the little kids to a 9200 sq ft indoor playground called
INFLATABLE WONDERLAND!

It's also known as "The Jumping Place"
Perfect for little ones with LOTS of energy!
Since Karis is still a wobbly walker,
this jumping wonderland was a bit intimidating ...
but she seemed eager to try her little feet at it.
The people who own this place are Christian folk.
There are posters like this one
hanging on the walls ...
Sabrina and Karis sliding down one of the
Giant Slides ...
Jackson absolutely loves it here!
There are obstacle courses, crawl mazes,
moon walks, inflatable games, and tons of balls
to play with!

I liked this poster especially ...
if you double click on the picture, you will be able
to read what it says a little bit easier.

Even Grandma Jones got in on the action!
It was half price day today!
Sabrina keeps track of all of the special days and prices ...
There were lots of little kids who had
never met each other before today, but who played together
anyway! I love how little kids do that.
This is the wash station ...
This was the Western Tent where YOU
could charge the bull -- Jackson ran into this bull
about 100 times -- and bounced all over the place!

Scripture from the Love Chapter (I Corinthians 13)

Mr. Jones watched over baby Karis while
Sabrina and I rough-housed with Jackson ...
Oh, you guys are SO cute!
We had so much fun ...

The Finding Nemo Adventure, complete
with a giant Bruce the shark!
Bruce is getting ready to devour Grandpa!
Princess Karis being her sweet self ...

We played here all morning,

and then ran some errands ...

we stopped at one of my favorite stores,
The Paper Place, where I get the pretty paper

I use for my cards ...

and then we were home for naps!

This afternoon, when Andrew picked up the mail
there was a special package for Jackson ...

his recalled trains from Thomas the Train
had been replaced and sent through the mail!

Jackson quickly set them all up on his train table.
We had a great day today!
Sabrina cooked us a yummy dinner of chicken-fried steak
(definitely a southern thing)
with mashed potatoes, creamy gravy and fresh green beans.

We sure are enjoying our stay in Austin!
