My 2nd job place was having their 10th anniversary party today. Since it's a child visitation center the event was geared towards kids. I was asked to bring the T's since most of the employees don't have little ones and they were afraid not enough kids would show up. So off we went. These cupcakes were donated by a fancy-shmancy restaurant in town who sent along a chef to help the kids decorate them. Here's the littlest T getting some help with his.
The bigger T's just thought it was cool that there were little candy eyeball decorations that they could eat.
The finished products were then devoured. Well, the two little T's just licked the icing off leaving the naked cupcake behind.
There's a quilt hung on a wall inside the facility that was made by a volunteer. Each square has a child's handprint. Someone is making a new one so the T's each contributed a square.
The oldest T is helping the littlest T. Actually, he's just restraining him in case he decided it was a good idea to put his handprint all over. Luckily, he complied with the orders given and didn't.
How much fun is it to have your face painted? Especially on black asphalt when it's 90 degrees outside. Well, the kids enjoyed it but the creations started sweating off a little later. Tanner and Travis both had orange, black and white stripes painted on their faces. Let me explain. The guy asked what their favorite football team is. Of course, they said the Bengals as I beamed in the background. That's my boys.....
But as soon as they said it, the face painter (who is actually the director's husband pictured below painting Travis) realized he wasn't talented enough to do a tiger so he talked them into striping the team colors. Uhhh.. sure. The boys were cool with that.

Tatum got 2 purple balloons on her cheek and a rainbow on her hand. She's such a girl! Teagan wanted nothing to do with paint on his face but agreed to a yellow star on his hand.
The last event for the sweltering afternoon was the bouncy house. All four T's started out inside with a few other kids. But Teagan decided after getting catapulted around inside everytime a big kid jumped that he wanted out. Yeah kid.....it sucks being the smallest.
Here's a great one from Travis. Remember he's seven.
T: Knock Knock
The Best Aunt Ever: Who's there?

T: Ahhhh man ... I messed that up. I was supposed to do it the other way. I need to start over.
TBAE: Fan-tas-tic! (said exactly the way Sea Star made famous)
Funny stuff. Life with kids. It's a laugh a minute.
