This Is How You Celebrate A Birthday?

Mister Man had his birthday party awhile ago, but I keep forgetting to post about this. I am so glad that I took pictures, because they crack me up every time I look at them.

Mister Man did a joint birthday party with his buddy Violet at a gymnastics facility. It worked out really well, as there was minimal organization on my part and they both adore gymnastics and running around, so everyone had a great time.

As the other mom and I were upstairs arranging the cake and snacks and such, our party coordinator came up to ask if we wanted to have them do a birthday swing over the pit. We both looked at each other and agreed - swinging over the pit and then falling into it is one of the the favorite activities of both children.

I didn't realize it was going to be quite like this.










Note the flying foam cubes. Everywhere. They were everywhere. Each of the birthday guests jumped into the pit and dug in deep. As they sang happy birthday to the birthday children, they threw the foam cubes at the defenseless swinging child - who was having an absolute blast.

I want my next birthday party at a gymnastics facility (ps that's Wednesday for those of you who want to get that last minute present ordered). This was wayyyyy too much fun. And yes, I inquired. My local facility will do adult parties.

That looks like so much fun! I would totally do it for my birthday, but I don't have enough strength to hold onto the rope anymore, lol.

Shoot. Maybe next year?

Laural - Fortunately, that's why they have the seat for you to sit on while swinging ;)

Kelly - Don't you? I think I'm going to have to do this or something similar soon!

Melisa - I think so. How fun!?
