Dibble BBQ

 

Every year Justin's company puts on a really nice family picnic and this year was no exception!  There were big playgrounds for the kids, a face-painter, a bounce house, and lots of yummy food!

 

The girls had a great day!

 

Paige trying to be a big girl and pretty much freaking Mommy out!  Lauren won't even try to climb on these "stairs"!!!  I keep saying Paige is going to be the first one with a broken bone or needing stitches.  UGH!

This is more my comfort level for a 17 month old:

Lauren's "princess face":

Didn't that painter do a great job?!?  Lauren felt so pretty and asked anyone who would listen if they liked her star.  =)

Paige was not quite as enthusiastic:

But, in her defense she was *really* tired. 

Then came the bouncing!!!

Lauren was having a blast, of course - and Paige started whining to go in too.  I was apprehensive because Lauren freaked out when she was Paige's age when she tried to be in a bouncy at a birthday party.  But, I decided to give it a try since I could always climb into this HUGE one to get her out. 

To my surprise...

 

... she was in heaven!  I had to bribe her to come out with food!  She wanted nothing more than to hang out in there and get bounced around by all the other kids - who were super sweet to her, by the way!

I didn't manage to get a family picture, but we all had a great afternoon in the sunshine!  If only the weather would just stay this way!

Side note:  Yesterday ended up being a very busy day for me, so my TonT post just did not happen.  I am hoping that tomorrow I can do a Ten on Thursday to make up for it!
