Handley's Birthday Party

Today we had Handley's birthday party at Champion Kids.  It's a gymnastics location that has inflatables, in-ground trampolines, a foam pit, a zip line, and all sorts of other fun activities.  Handley has been talking about wanting her party here since we attended another party at the same location 9 months ago.  

Since I'm almost 36 weeks pregnant, my goal for this party was for it to be as stress free as possible.  I dropped off all of our decorations on Thursday and when we showed up this morning everything was already set up and ready to go. All I had to do was set out the cupcakes and we were ready to party!  Handley was very in to the planning of her party this year, including every detail like the decor and the guest list.  Her main request was that everything be pink and purple.  


The kids all had a great time playing and it was hard for me to get many pictures because none of them stopped for two seconds the entire hour they were in the gym.  A lot of the dads got in on the action too, which was quite entertaining for the rest of us. :-)





 Both my girls loved the zip-line into the foam pit.  As soon as they were able to climb out of the pit they were running back to get in line to go again.  Click here for a little video of Handley's first try at the zip-line.


After everyone was worn out from playing it was time for cake!  Handley got to sit in a special throne chair as everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to her.




It was a great party and she had fun celebrating with all of her closest friends.  A big thank you to everyone who helped make her day extra special!

It was such a great party!! Ella had so much fun, and Jason wears the burns on his elbow and leg from the giant slide like a badge of honor--haha:)
