We finally got to have Owen's birthday this past weekend. He seemed to have a lot of fun. Owen picked a Cars theme and it worked out really well. For the kids party, I sent them home with a goodie bag and a cupcake in one of those fun Cars tins that Target happen to have in their dollar bins. The cupcake fit perfect! I was really proud of myself for that idea! ;O)
The kid's portion was at a gymnastics gym in town. They had this foam pit thing that the kids couldn't get enough of. It was really funny to watch them try to move around in it!
I think Owen would have been happy doing nothing else!
The second room in the gym had these two long trampolines. The kids loved running up and down on them. We had fun, but, it wasn't at all like I had anticipated. In the past (and how it was portrayed in the description on their website), a coach was supposed to take them from equipment to equipment and kind of show them how to use it and instigate different games. Our "coach" sat on her rear and texted on her phone the whole time while the kids had a free for all. Fortunately, all the parents there were hands-on and the kids had a good time regardless!
We went home and had pizza and cake with the family. It was nice to have a break from so many kiddos, Owen had 8 friends show to his party! You could tell he was super overwhelmed though because around 6pm he asked to go to bed and watch t.v.. He went upstairs and never came back down while the rest of us visited!! That's so not like him, he's usually such a social bug!!
I have lots more photos to post, just have to sort through them. Hope you all have a happy Friday!
