Face painting and parties…

"I like parties."
-Isla

Ashlyn was digging around in the closet for art supplies and found a face painting kit.  Isla became Ashlyn’s canvas and she was very excited about the end result.

With both the girls in gymnastics, our house will often be turned into a makeshift gym complete with a pad made out of couch cushions.  Ashlyn will run across the floor doing cartwheels.  Isla tries her best to mimic Ashlyn but usually just ends up doing a tumble roll.

We picked up a new virtual reality system this weekend and the kids had a blast playing with it.  James’ favorite game was a virtual theme park where he could play games ranging from ball toss, boxing, balloon popping, and even archery.  Ashlyn liked a game where she could play with a room full of objects that included a flying robot.  Isla was too small to really enjoy it, but she liked riding in the virtual roller coaster even though her height made it hard to see over the side of the coaster car.

We wrapped up the weekend at a party at a friend’s house to celebrate the adoption of their new son.  The kids enjoyed it thanks to two bounce houses, lots of toys, food, cars, and cookies.  Not a bad way to end the week.
