Family Day at the Office

Every year, Jim's employer has a 'family day'. There are bounce houses, train rides and games for the kids; a free dinner (complete with ice cream for dessert) and vendors and other people giving things away (like pens, highlighers, yo-yos and bouncy balls!). Here are a few pics from last Friday's family day.


Andrew on an inflatable slide.



Andrew coming down...Jim and Peter going up.



Peter and Jim at the top.



Jim and the boys on the 'train ride'.







Andrew played the 'QB challenge' - he actually did pretty well getting the ball into the tiny holes.



Our little railroaders...
before playing with the 'snort' (which Peter kept yelling over and over again to the man behind us. Fortunately, said man also had kids and knew exactly what Peter was talking about! If you don't know, read Are You my Mother?)


The goal: to knock over the cone using the orange hook attached to the crane attached to the 'snort' truck...using a remote control.


The VERY patient volunteer who explained to Andrew how to do it. I think all Andrew really wanted to do was the trigger that made the horn honk!


Andrew, in his safety gear, manipulating the triggers. He DID eventually get the cones knocked over...but I think it took him 3x as long as the other kids! God bless his patient instructor!
