It's Fun to Play at the YMCA

A couple of Saturdays ago we went to the Y's family day, complete with a bounce house, obstacle course set up in the gym, a Wii fit station and a stage area where participants from the different classes could give a mini-demo of what the class was like. They also had remote control airplanes flying around the place and some really cool kites flying outside.
Pretty impressive, right?

Apparently not.

No, Lydia was a bit 'disappointed' that we didn't take her 'simmin'.

*sigh*

Should've known she'd be ticked we weren't going swimming. Although, to her credit, she finally came around, as evidenced by the following photos.

Cade getting ready to fire one right in the middle of the hoop.
Wait, what sport is this?

See, told ya!
Nothing but, umm, well.... not net...oh forget it. The hula hoop didn't move an inch.

'Jayhawk beesketball! My turn, Daddy!'

'I did it!'

'Kick!'

Yep.
Belly dancers.
It's one of the classes offered at our Y.
Can't accuse us of not being culturally diverse.

Lydia finally forgot she was mad about not swimming.

What kid doesn't love a bounce house?
Remember when we used to call them moon walks?

She couldn't WAIT to go down the slide.

She was sssooo excited!!!

Until she went down.
It doesn't look like she's enjoying the ride...

*giggle*
This shot just cracks me up.
She wasn't so sure she liked this slide.
I mean, it was one of the steepest slides I've seen in a while.
But I've got to hand it to her. She recovered well and went back for
more a couple times.


Even Cade was a little surprised the first time going down.

OK, admit it. You're laughing at my kids pictures, aren't you? Can't say I blame you. These aren't the most flattering photos, but man, they sure are hilarious!
