The last joint birthday party?

We had Arran and Bryttain's birthday party on Monday. It was a school holiday so we were able to book an afternoon session at Pump It up, which had been requested! The thing with these winter birthdays is that a party at a park is pretty much ruled out and with all the friends and siblings and parents, it feels too crazy to try to do it at our house anymore. We had the talk this year, that we probably will not do a party every year from now, some years we will, but some years we may pick a few friends and do a special outing, or go to see a movie...but this year it was a party.

The kids got to bounce and slide for an hour and a half before heading into the party room for cake and drinks, suitably tired out. Parents got to chat or take photos and I did not have a destroyed house to tidy up at the end of it all!

The giant inflatable slide seems to be the favorite these days.

 Our girl mid-flight and tumbling at the bottom. Fearless!

All smiles. What fun!

It was not her birthday, but she is still a star.

Sitting in the birthday throne, singing 'Happy Birthday' to themselves, along with everybody else.

Self-explanatory!

Thanking their friends for coming to their party, before handing out the goody bags.
