My Jumping Bean

Friday morning, Melissa and Lawson showed us the best kept secret in Southaven- BOUNCE! They have open jump time three days a week for less than $10/child, and we were the only people there for almost an hour. We haven’t been to a jumpy place in quite a while, and Helen Grace was ready to go from the moment she woke up this morning. Helen Grace and Lawson giggled and squealed the whole time, and HG wanted ‘Lissa’ to go on the slide with her too. The girl isn’t scared of anything and can scoot up those climbing walls and ladders in a split second, and then she throws herself down the tall slides. One ‘big kid’ inflatable even had a climbing wall that had a outward bulge in it that you have to almost hang off of to get over it, and HG just scaled right up it without slowing down. She obviously gets her daddy’s bull-headed courage because this mama thinks twice when it comes to a chance of bodily harm!  :)

Once the kids worked up an appetite, we headed to Newk’s to grab a bite to eat. The kiddos kept themselves entertained eating, so Melissa and I were able to enjoy a nice conversation. What a treat! Afterward, HG and I shared a cupcake at L’Oven and then headed home for a nap.

This has been one of those days that I’d like to put on ‘repeat’!
