Emma takes swimming lessons at Asphalt Green and they throw a Halloween party that got rescheduled because of the storm. Since Emma had her costume all picked out we headed over.
I didn't realize that she'd be one of the smaller peanuts there, but we got there right when it opened so Emma got to give the gymnastics equipment a try while it was fairly empty.
Turns out that she's a natural tumblebug! She climbed right up on the different blocks and through the obstacles.
She even went through the tunnel made from a colorful parachute.
There were some activities outside, but they were mostly for bigger kids and it became obvious just how tiny Emma was compared to most of the other kids.
Emma got a goody bag that she enjoyed looking though and somehow got a handful of my business cards and became absorbed in getting them into the bag.
It was a little chilly so we went back inside where Emma discovered a tootsie pop and became completely absorbed in that.
In the 80's there used to be a commercial about tootsie pops and it turns out that Emma couldn't resist crunching up the tootsie pop either.
Re-energized by her snack Emma did another circuit of the gymnastics equipment and I got a shot of one of her favorites: the balance beam. The nice lady in fancy dress encouraged us to try it and held Emma's hand on one side while Todd or I held her other hand.
If we didn't catch her after she got off that big red box she'd try to run around to the beam and climb onto it in the middle.
