Jack's Birthday Party

Jack had an awesome time at his birthday party this weekend! It was at My Gym, a local kids' gym. Jack and all his friends had the place to themselves as they climbed, jumped, and ran around like crazy!



The gym staff did a really great job at making Jack feel special. Here he is getting a birthday ride on the parachute.

Love the tongue!



Everyone had fun in the balls.

Even the "big kids!"

So cute!

Charlotte was in 7th heaven, being able to climb all over stuff to her heart's content.


Can't believe we were actually able to get Charlotte and Whitney both to smile for the camera!

Jack had fun on the trampolene with some of his newer friends, Eleanor and Thaddeus.


Cute picture of Chloe!

Jack and Will.

And since Will was there, you knew there was also going to be a hockey stick!


When it was cake time, Jack got wheeled out on the big birthday car. Here he is waving to all his adoring fans.

Curious George cake.

This was actually the first year he's been able to blow out the candle by himself, and without getting spit all over the cake!

Toward the end of the party, they got out the zipline--brought back memories of Costa Rica for Andy and me. This zipline was not quite as big as the ones Andy and I went down :) I think just about all the kids braved a turn on it, even Charlotte and Whitney! I have some cute videos of Jack and Charlotte that Aunt Lisa took, but I have to figure out how to convert their format to put on the blog. Here's Hannah:


The grand finale was tons of bubbles blown by a fan. Jack was pretty excited by the bubbles at first, but then he had to go check out the fan.

This is a little blurry, but you can still see Charlotte's expression of pure delight at all the bubbles.

And finally, Jack led the kids out of the playroom in a train.


Thanks to everyone for coming to Jack's party--we had such a great time! And more importantly, Jack had a blast and got to fully experience being the special birthday boy.
