Don't freefall backward down the slide, plus other tips learned in a bounce house
/Because my grandsons have an in-ground trampoline at their house, you wouldn't think they'd get much fun out of the Bounce-A-Round I reviewed a while back — which Bubby and Mac had not yet seen. During their visit a couple weeks ago, though, once Patrick brought his son over and the inflatable bouncing thingamajig was inflated, Bubby, Bud and Mac had a boisterous bouncing blast.
A couple days later, the bouncing blast was supersized when PawDad...

Jak meets PawDad, plus GRAND Social No. 114 link party
/Jak meets PawDad
I visit my grandsons far more often than my husband does simply because I go to the desert to take care of the boys on a fairly regular basis when Megan and Preston must attend to business matters. So it was pretty darn fabulous that Jim came along for last week's visit.
Especially great about this visit with our grandsons was that it was the very first time Jak and PawDad met.
