Party Time

I think J&R is an awesome place to have a birthday party. The kids we invited ranged in age from newborn to school age but there was something for everyone. And they can just run wild and expend tons of energy which I'm sure their parents appreciated. The foam pit was very popular... But probably more popular was this long trampoline. It took the entire party for the kids to grasp the one-way rule (and some, especially Cade, never did)
Even the big boys got to play.
Callie enjoyed showing off her skills on the beam. She even got out her butterfly arms.

And it's not a party until Cade bleeds a little bit. He smashed Em on the mat at the end of the trampoline. Everyone was so concerned with her crying (Amy has exceptionally loud children) that we missed Cade's bloody lip. He's not one to dramatize anything, he just rubbed his head a little bit. No big deal.

Great pic of Cade with MeeMaw



This was the closest we came to a group pic. Kids these age just don't think these kinds of things are important!
Tammy you have adorable children, and I'm not just saying that because you are my boss, it's true.
Cake time always gets a little crazy
Callie put plenty of spit on the cake
Cade needed a little help
Starting to dip their hands into the cake...
and of course Em joins in.
Juliana and Chloe enjoyed the cake
Opening gifts was absoluetly nuts. I tried to hurry because party time was over and I had several helpers. I'm not sure who gave what but we loved them all!
Callie was the slowest opener ever. She wanted to oh and ah, thank each person individually and open and play with each gift. Carlee helped her hurry along.



A big thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate Cade and Callie's birthdays. They are such lucky kids to have an endless supply of playmates and so many friends and family members that love them to pieces. You have no idea how much you all mean to us! Thanks again!
