Kids Rule!

We recently visited Kids Rule! Family Fun Center, a new "jumpy place" in Hattiesburg. It's really cool! The girls' favorite was a huge, fast slide. They also have two big party rooms, a parents' lounge area with free wi-fi, and unlimited jump time for the kids. To read all about it and view a slide show see my article on Examiner.com.

Letterboxing

The girls, my mom, Greg, and I went on a letterboxing excursion recently on the USM campus. The first box was relatively easy to find and was enthusiastically tracked down by Sophie:

The next letterbox had us following clues to a series of landmarks around campus:

We found all of the clues, but alas, the letterbox was not to be found...Oh well! We have searched for nearly all of the letterboxes in Hattiesburg. We're going to need to expand our search to other cities soon!

Clogging

Wow, didn't realize it had been 3 months since I updated this blog! Here are some pictures from the girls' clogging performance at the Purvis street festival last month.

Zora is 2nd from the right and Sophie is 3rd from the left in the above picture.

They had fun, though it was VERY hot, and Zora was continuously distracted by the inflatable jump directly to the left of the stage.
