Jumping Around

After Magic Mountain AND Disneyland, we had some Friday fun, too. Jake and Char came over after school, and late Violet's friend Victoria joined us, too. I took the kids to the trampoline jumping place formerly known as Sky High. The new owners were having an Open House, offering a special price $5 for one hour of playtime.

Violet and Victoria played basketball for a bit...
...while Cora and Jake waited in a long line to get on the dodgeball court. Cora was very disappointed about how the new people are running the dodgeball game. Only four kids per side, making for long lines, very different than before.
Her disappointment grew when the employees in the bi trampoline area were enforcing a "no running" rule, and when an employee told her she would need to buy new socks. The grippy socks we bought from Sky High weren't good enough, apparently. I spoke to the employee and, no, we didn't buy new socks for our half hour remaining.
Eventually, they settled into a game of jumping off the sides and doing flips, and they had a better time.
They were warm enough after the jumping to earn a slurpee and Dipping Dots from 7-Eleven.
We then took a field trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house to feed the dogs, since they were away helping Melanie with a wedding. We dropped Victoria off on our way home, and then the boys played with Cora a bit longer before they went home, too.
