An indoor kind of day

Since the sky (and the weather man) was threatening thunder storms today, our plans for a day outside turned into a day inside. We spent the morning at an indoor playground. The older kids had been there before for birthday parties but it was my first time there and also a first for the younger kids. What a hoot! They ran, jumped, climbed and slid for two hours straight. I enjoyed a coffee with my mom. Although it wasn't the kind of coffee you could just sit and drink the entire time. With four monkeys playing, it seemed we were called here, there and everywhere to watch, catch, take a picture or even climb up and rescue! It's always fun to watch the kids play together. The big kids enjoy helping the little ones and even when they say they've had enough of helping and want to run off and play, they can't help but lend a hand to a little brother or sister who needs a boost or a word of encouragement. It's great. Everyone had an enjoyable time and there were a few tears when it was time to go. Okay, maybe more than a few, but most of them came from a little curly haired boy who was having so much fun going down the "lellow" slide. Can't blame him really! (I had my camera on the wrong setting so my pictures didn't turn out very well).
