Birthday Celebration #2

Christopher had his big birthday bash at My Gym this afternoon with ten of his closest friends. It was so wonderful to be in one place with all of the wonderful friends we've met out here in Kansas! Our only friend who was missing was Maddie and her mother Randa but Randa has a good excuse because she just had a baby a week ago. Anyway, the kiddos went crazy today running around, playing, and just having a good old time. Here is Christopher with Nico jumping on the trampoline...


The kids did some exercise and played games at circle time; then they were able to just have free play for awhile. Here is a video of a game the children played where they had to be different animals followed by miscellaneous pictures of the fun...







And then, of course, here is Chris with his favorite little guy, Connor...
After all the fun and games, it was time to get down to the serious business--the cake! But before the cake, there was the "birthday sled." That's right, the birthday sled. There really is no explanation for this so just go ahead and watch the video.


After that craziness, the cake happened!
And finally, after some major cleaning up and wiping down, the kids were able to go back and play for the last little bit of the party. They finished up with the zip line! Here is Chris on the zip line. I have to say, this video does no justice to the look on CJ's face as he zipped across the room. Let's just say his eyes were opened about as wide as I've ever seen them!


It was a fantastic party AND we didn't even have to clean up. Fabulous! Thank you to all of our friends who joined us for the big day!
