The youngest neighbor boy was begging to play with it that day, so all the kids agreed to give it a go. They had a great time that day, but it hasn't been back out since :( I think it may be time to pass it on to the cousins. <br /><br />Now the scooters....my kids would LOVE those. They'd ultimately end up breaking a bone or something, so I think we'll steer clear of those. lol! <br /><br />And about the hands on stuff - believe me...we are not that hands on all the time. I just needed a ton of stuff to keep them busy that week. lol!Starfish Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357460498875083845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915722163450250052.post-91292437588418115142011-04-01T22:37:27.640-05:002011-04-01T22:37:27.640-05:00WOW!

(I'm not so fun!)<br /><br />Your parachute reminded me of elementary gym class :) We did a show for our parents with it, and scooters to the music from the 80s movie Jewel of the Nile.

But then the hard drive crashing so the lessons were lost AND the neighbor boys needing child care ... I would have definitely claimed it as a sign from the Lord that a break was needed! :D Looks like y'all had a great week, though, and I'm glad the kids had a chance to look "deep in the heart of Texas!" :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929922204862456446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915722163450250052.post-37888688333301424512011-03-12T19:31:01.980-06:002011-03-12T19:31:01.980-06:00No, we didn't end up having chili :( I didn...No, we didn't end up having chili :( I didn't realize I was out of ground meat and noone felt like going to the grocery store that evening. So, we had black bean and cheese tortilla roll-ups instead. Still sorta Texan, right?
