Selfish Parenting Outings: Jump Street with Nate and Gentry David!

My sweet madre drove us up to Colorado and we got to have a couple of fun days with her and Nate before they headed back to NM.  One of the days we went to Jump Street.  If you live the greater Denver area and haven't been, you are missing out and need to schedule either your kids, or your next birthday party there.  It is seriously the funnest place on earth!  Time and time again, Jeff and I are the only adults that are jumping with all the kids, but seriously neither one of us care, cause it is so fun!!  I would be lying if I said we went for the kids, Jeff and I absolutely LOVE trampolines and seriously this outing was secretly about us having a really fun day all while bouncing crazily on trampolines...of course it was even more fun because we got to go with the boys, but make no mistake this was one of those selfish parent outings :)

Here is a list of the top 20 reasons you should go:

1.  You can practice yoga for your warm up!

2.  You can do back handsprings no matter how old you are.

3.  You can jump all together as a family

4.  You can dunk basketballs when your only 10.

5.  You can dunk basketballs when your 30.

6.  You can beat your husband in a toe touch contest.

7.  You can smile at your husbands effort and encourage him, all while knowing you totally won that round.


8.  You can watch your really cute little brother smile and laugh for hours!

9.  You can watch your husband smile and laugh for hours just like he was your little brother!

10.  You can watch your son smile and laugh for hours :)
11.  You get to watch and laugh at people as they struggle to get out of the foam pit.  (It really is so hard to get out  of)


12.  You get to laugh at cute kids doing cute tricks.

13.  You get to watch more cute kids doing cute tricks all while hoping they don't hit the side of the wall!


14.  You can comfortably lounge in the foam pit while throwing blocks  which makes the kids think your playing with them, when in reality your just relaxing.

15.  You can have a layout contest with your husband



And even though he might have beat you in most categories, he wasn't able to stick the landing and so you get a priceless picture of him flying backwards through the air :)

16.  You get to spend time with 2 smiley boys :)

17.  You can learn tricks from Nate.

18.  You can teach your son how to do backflips.

19.  You get to hear cute things from your kids like "look mom, yellow shorts, yellow shirt, yellow drink, and yellow hair" :)


20.  You can take a family picture with everyone smiling cause they have had such a good time, and not care to much about the fact your hair is crazy and your super sweaty :)
