End of year adventures

 Kiki and Kioni came into town to be with us to ring in the new year. Of course for those few days while they were here we had to have a few adventures. A favorite place for my girls is the Big Bounce. It's an inflatable wonderland and oober fun. I often have to trick my children into leaving with bribes that we'll come back after nap/lunch/etc. so that they are not like the other kids I see screaming to stay as their moms drag 'em to their cars. I'm sure that my days are limited until I see that behavior in my girls so until then I'll enjoy their obedience and offer non-judgmental consoling glances to the other moms. But I digress... So we did go to there but we neglected to take pics (it's a busy place and I dare not look away from my children for fear of losing one or both). Our other main adventure was to travel downtown to the Austin Children's Museum. Children's museums are always fun because there are so many activities to do and things to explore. My gripe is that it's exhausting on a parent. Kiki and I were floored by how slowly time was moving and how fast our girls were buzzing from activity to activity.The girls absolutely loved everything and for good reason cause there really were a lot of fun and educational things right at their eye level and there were a lot of kids (or as Savannah says "friends") there too.
