Cousins and a Bounce House

Some of our relatives were visiting their parents recently and hosted a joint birthday party for some of the cousins who live out of town. The boys and I drove up to Aunt D's in the afternoon for the party and brought along what was left of the wheat free, soy free, oat free, dairy free cake that we had made for Pequeño's birthday for  our kids to eat.

When we got there, the kids were a little shy at first because they had not seen these cousins in a few mints (I think the last time was at Thanksgiving?). Then one of the adults mentioned that they were going to blow up a bounce house and the kids all ran to watch it get set up. Once it was ready, they all hopped in and were instantly having fun together.

Pequeño was too little to go in the bounce house but he still had a lot of fun visiting with relatives, watching an laughing at the other kids, and playing in the grass.

The kids took a short break from bouncing to eat and have cake and then went right back to jumping around.

We had originally planned to go home that night but after an issue with the van, we ended up spending the night at Abuelo and Abuela's (who were away in Puerto Rico). The next morning, while Papa Bear worked on the van, the kids and I went back to Aunt D's to visit with the relatives again. Since they didn't have to return the bounce house until later that day, the kids were all able to play in it some more! They also played on the swingset for a little bit before we had to leave as well.
