Jump! Jump! Jump!

Whoever invented blowup jumpers was brilliant (and probably really rich by now!). We went to my cousin Brad's graduation party on Saturday and they had a castle jumper in the backyard. When we walked in I knew we would have a hard time getting Reagan to ever leave. It was a great party and we were able to see a lot of my relatives that we haven't seen in a while. Pat was thrilled with the Portillo's food and Nola loved all of the attention. Reagan loved the chocolate cake - I think she had 2 pieces - good thing she didn't find the chocolate chip cookies that her dad was thoroughly enjoying! Reagan and Cassidy just ran and ran and ran - that is, when they weren't jumping. It was so fun to watch Reagan play with her cousins - especially those she doesn't see very often. I am one of 16 grandchildren on my dad's side and I really don't know how many great-grandchildren there are -definitely over 30, so there are plenty of kids to play with. Its really great to have such a large family - it keeps life fun and interesting.
It did take us quite a long time to leave the party (imagine that!). Reagan had to give EVERYONE a kiss and a hug - even people she had never met before. Then I forgot something inside and she went back in with me and gave everyone another kiss and a hug. Definitely Mulcrone and Scanlon blood in our girls - never want to leave a party and always have a great time while they are there.
Pat did get a video from the jumper, so check it out. (this is the first video I am uploading, so let me know if it doesn't work).
