January Funks

Part of the reason for driving to Gembrook is to be with family. It is a fun time for everyone at once and that even goes for how many are allowed on the trampoline. We adults have to make sure that we bounce at just the right pitch so heads don't bang together. The trampoline was fun and we both played there with our grandkids for quite a time. It seems to be better than a swimming pool if you weigh it against the amount of upkeep a pool requires as opposed to a trampoline.

Bec or Gord must have made the large foam sausage that Piper and Jasper attached to. They looked like they were riding a bouncing torpedo. Piper may have considered that this was good horse riding practice.

Jethro enjoyed the bouncing about too. He certainly likes being involved in the same sort of games as his older siblings.
The pictures below were of the late afternoon story time. It was bed time for the kids but because of daylight saving it was hard to believe it. Piper is enjoying her more serious story. It is a special time for Bec too and she read the story with plenty of imaginative expression. Gord read to Jasper, or just turned the pages as Jasper directed. We couldn't help noticing that Jaz has grown and is looking and acting older. Jethro was just happy to stroll about with the occasional excursion into Peter's pockets for what to find there. He really is a sweet kid.
