Cupcakes, Ice Cream and Toys, Oh My!


We had a great, fun weekend! Saturday was the boys birthday party at Jump Zone in Bentonville. Before heading up to that Gigi and I had some shopping to do so we headed to Target and in the meantime Chad and Papa headed up to Touch-A-Truck with the boys. It was raining but they were going to brave the rain and make the best of it. I guess the Junior League decided otherwise because they post-poned the event for a few weeks. Chad didn't want to head home yet so they took the boys to the Promenade because they've recentley gotten a new carousel in the food court. The Promenade is our outdoor mall in NWA. The boys had fun, Gray was a little scared and wouldn't ride the horse, he made Chad ride with him and they sat on one of the benches...the other boys loved it! After lunch and a little ice cream they finally headed home just in time to get ready for another boys birthday party. They got to stay long enough to play for a few minutes and then had to leave for their own party. Jump Zone is an indoor facility that caters to birthday parties, they have 4 rooms set up and decorated for the kids parties. They have about 10 huge inflatable things for the kids (and parents) to play on. Even one for the toddlers! It was the perfect place considering the nasty weather we've been having. Everyone had a great time! The boys were running around chasing each other, going down the slides, jumping on the inflatables! Lot's of fun for everyone. I was not able to get any pictures of the fun until we got into the party room. All of them turned out fuzzy! Even on my sports setting! So, here are some of the pics I did get. Sunday I didn't do much of anything...I stayed home with Harrison and we both got a nice long nap. Chad took the big boys to target to spend some birthday money..pics will be coming soon Aunt Tara! After that they headed to the grocery store to pick up a few things but got sidetracked at Maggie Moo's Ice Cream Shop...Yum O! Overall a great weekend with lots of new toys to play with...guess we'll be cleaning out the playroom this week!




Jackson and Gray sharing the "throne"

Jacob, Landry, Harrison & Carson

Erika and Jackson--no wonder the boys have such a crush on this cutie!


Getting ready to blow out the candles, Jackson said afterward that he had wished that the whole world was a brownie!

Thanks to everyone for coming up to our neck of the woods for the party!

They are sooo cute! I can't wait to spend some time with them in Hot Springs in July. I know my boys are going to love playing with your boys! It has been way too long!
