Foam Fun

Mom wanted to do something fun with the kids today. Tiffany didn’t like the idea of just going to play at a park, because she didn’t want to have to chase kids. Debby sent mom a link about the Lehi Foam Days event. Mom thought that looked like lots of fun, and that became the plan for today. I am still not feeling very well and I had a prenatal appointment this morning so I was hoping they would just take the kids for me. But mom expected me to meet them at the park for foam days after my appointment. So I helped get the kids ready, and sent them with mom in the van. Tiffany and Debby and their babies went in Debby’s car, and mom left her car and keys for me to use. I put my camera in the car because I figured, if I don’t go and take pictures of the kids playing in the foam I won’t have any and I went to my appointment, then I drove to Lehi to meet up with the others.

When I got to the park, I found Mom with my kids at a booth playing some games.

We went to go back to where Debby and Tiffany were and Mom got some food to share for lunch. Then it was time to go play in some bubbles. They had the foam area of the park broken down into sections for age groups. Ethan and Jeremy refused to play in the foam, so Tyra and Dinah went together to their age group, while Mom and I took Chloe Lydia and Adam to where the little kids were supposed to play. There were lots of people that were just covered in the foam, but my little ones didn’t know what to think of it.

They didn’t play for very long and when they were done, mom took them back to the rest of the group while I tried to find Tyra and Dinah. By this time though, I was feeling pretty weak. I wasn’t able to find Tyra and Dinah in the masses so I went back to the rest of the group to sit down, and mom went to look for them. They finally found us, and we decided it was time to get going. Mom took the kids in the van again, and I asked her to give the kids a bath when they got back to the house. I wanted to stop by the store to get something to help boost my immune system, and get some things for dinner and some other things that we were low on (like milk).

By the time I got home and the car was unloaded Kyle was home. We went downstairs to watch Hotel Transylvania with mom, Debby and Tiffany. I came upstairs before the movie was over to get the barbeque started. Debby cut peppers for me and made some kool aid while I grilled the meat for fajitas, and the corn on the cob. When the meat was done, mom sliced it, and Kyle sauteed the meat with the peppers and onions, while I cut the watermelon. Then I announced that I was done and that I was going to sit for the rest of the night because I was feeling weak before we left the park, and by dinner time I had just pushed myself WAY too far. So Kyle served dinner. After dinner, mom and Tiffany loaded up the rest of their things and put Denzel in the car to start the drive to head back home. They had to stop by Debby’s to pick up the rest of Tiffany’s stuff so Debby and Rexton left too. It was a good day and we had a nice evening, but I’m not going to lie, considering the way I feel I’m kind of glad they are gone so I can try to get some rest.
