When the kids are off track, I try to plan one fun activity a week for us to do and get out of the house. The kids really look forward to getting out of the house and enjoy having something to look forward to. The kids both love going to Airborne(a trampoline jumping place) in Draper, Utah and had been begging me to go. I surprised them at the first of the week and promised them we could go if they helped around the house, did their chores and did their reading and some school work. It didn't take much to convince them to help out so they could go.
Kaleb ended up inviting his neighborhood gal pal, Adilynne Hagen. He sure loves having Adilynne as a friend and they have been very good little friends since Kindergarten. Karmindy also wanted to invite a friend so we ended up meeting her friend Jake Simmonds their. Jake and Karmindy were in Preschool together at Small Wonders Preschool, and I have gotten to know Jake's mom Kerrie, pretty well. She is such a sweet friend and it is always fun to be able to go and let the kids play and talk and visit with another mom.
We all had fun at Airborne. We let the kids jump for about an hour and then headed to McDonalds for ice cream sundaes afterwords. The kids had a blast and I enjoyed visiting and catching up with Kerrie.
We sure love our fun times while being off track!
