Some leprechauns left some candy under our table this year. My children don't actually look excited, no matter how excited they are. Madison was far too tired to function correctly. She insisted that I take her picture again and she put both hands up for some reason.
We went to play at the park afterwards and we discovered that Jocelyn absolutely loves to swing. So much so that when I took her out she cried and cried.
If you look closely you'll see balls dropping out of the helicopter.
To top off our afternoon, we went to a Guinness World Record of 20,000 bouncy balls being dropped out of a helicopter a hundred feet up! Had I realized that it would be so anti-climatic, we probably wouldn't have gone. My anxiety levels were at all time highs. First the helicopter was far to close while it was wavering in the air. It seriously looked like it was going to fall out of the sky. We were on the very front of the crowd so we would've been some of the first hit. Once they were all dropped the kids all went running. The only problem was that Madison fell and then started crying. Some of the college students there were good enough to pick her up and bring her back. Then Alexis and Drew disappeared. Yes, my children ran to get some balls and I couldn't find them. I'm sure you can only imagine how high my anxiety levels were at this point. Luckily I spotted them together and I was able to wrangle them all back to the car! So glad it is all over! And no there weren't enough balls. Some people were kind enough to give each of my kids a ball and then someone heard Madison complain she wanted a yellow one, so they gave her one!
