The Jones Diary: Vacation Day 2......Mr. Biggs

Saturday afternoon after all the ski/snowboard equipment was rented and naps were taken, we went to a place called Mr. Biggs. It's kindof like an All-Star Sports on a bigger level. There was stuff for the big kids as well as Zach's age so was good entertainment for all of us.

In the kids area, there was a little town like atmosphere where kids could play. There was everything from dress up, to a kitchen, to a sand pit, a tricycle riding area, slides, etc, etc. Zach's favorites were the huge car and helicopter he could climb in......

The foam factory was neat....was only for kids under 5 foot. Zach was a little young for a lot of it, but still liked it. It was a 3 story structure that had a billion foam balls you could shoot, throw, stick into structures, etc. They also had a slide from one story to another, a cargo net climbing thing that went up all 3 levels. I might add this is NOT meant for adults to climb through and being the mother I am I crawle through it with Zach. Lets just say it wasn't my best look.....no photos of that though! Most of the pics came out blurry but you'll get the idea....

Zach's daddy did manage to leave the big kids and their fun stuff to come play with us for awhile. Yet he was still one of the kids. As you can see from this photo, we had a hard time getting daddy to stay with us. Here he is shooting other children with one of the guns that shoots balls across the entire place.....this photo isn't very good and he'll probably try to argue that it isn't him. But trust me it is and I had to include just cuz I kept hollering at him to come play with us and he got all absorbed with shooting random children!

Donnie managed to tear himself away from the gun to catch Zach at the bottom of the slide so I captured a pic of them. I was up on the 2nd story next to the slide. I did manage to shoot them with a ball or two prior to joining them though!

I was surprised Zach could walk through this area as well as he did. It was a cargo net type material with swinging foam sticks (like my expert terminology)...he ran right through it pushing those things out of the way.

The big kids (which includes Donnie!) did other things while Zach and I were in the little kid zone. They had go-karts, laser tag, mini golf, some 3-D simulator thing, a big twisty ride that none of them would ride, etc, etc. I only got pics of the go-karts as that's all Zach and I watched them do.

Pre-race photos.....

All ready to race......
Donnie.....

Justin....

Autumn.....

Treyton.....

The far away pics didn't turn out very well......Treyton ended up beating everyone, but he was also the first one out the gate! Donnie tried REALLY hard to pass him sevearl times but was unable to do so. Autumn and Justin battled it out for 3rd and 4th. Autumn kept spinning all the way around, otherwise she would've been up with Treyton as they started out together. Poor Justin was last out the gate and had a hard time catching up!
