One sign that summer's end is drawing close is that Tumble and Play has started again at the Y.  Twice a week, the lovely staff at the Y fill the large gymnasium with a variety of brightly colored mats of all shapes and sizes for the children, ages 12 months to 4 years, to run up, roll on, slide down, jump over and have fun with. They also stock the room with several balls, hula hoops, and a very low balance beam. For an hour, the kids can run, yell, dance to the fun music pumping from the 80's style boom-box, and generally get their energy out. 

The two sets of sisters (Anna & Ada, Eliza & Harper) had a blast. It was fun for the moms too. 

This was the only picture I could capture of the big girls

since they were barely in the same place for more than a few seconds.
