A Fun Filled Weekend

Two weekends ago,  we had a jam packed agenda.  Nick did not have to work on Friday, and I had teacher institute meetings until 12:00, so we thought we would take a little road trip with Jack.  But I was actually able to sneak out around 10:45 so we left a little earlier than we originally anticipated (ssssshhhhh,don't tell). We spent Friday afternoon at Monkey Joe's in Peoria.  It's a big place that is filled with jumpy houses, slides, etc... for kids to play on.  And best of all, they have a separate area for kids under 3, so you don't have to worry about your little one getting trampled by a bigger kid.  Jack absolutely loved it.  He enjoyed the jumping so much that when he would get out of the jumpy house he would try to jump on the regular hard floor.  

After we had our fill of running and jumping, we went to Olive Garden for a little bite to eat.  Jack was an absolute angel the entire time (thanks to the ipad), and I was a little nervous because he was way past his nap time. 

Since the weather forecast was calling for an absolutely gorgeous Saturday, we thought we better head out to Boggio's bright and early to try and beat the crowds.  It was a rather cheap little outing because Jack was mostly interested in the playground equipment.  He just kept running circles around it and then running up and down the steps to go down the slide.  

He also enjoyed the jumping pillow and the bouncy house.  It seems as though the weekend was filled with a lot of jumping for Jack, that might be why he has been jumping on an off our furniture a bit more lately.  We also picked up some yummy apple cider donuts and some fudge while we were there. 

My attempt at getting my picture taken with Jack, obviously he wasn't too interested in it

After Boggio's we headed to our nephew's flag football game.  So after all of that fresh air from our fun filled morning, Jack and I were both more than ready for a nap when we got home.
