Here's Emily climbing out of the foam pit after swinging into it.
Ali and a couple of friends jumping around on one of the trampolines.
They built an obstacle course on the 'floor exercise' area and the kids had a great time with that. Here's Ali with a few of her friends waiting to take their turns.
Emily and her friends opening gifts.
Emily still opening gifts.....

Lindsay and Kenna came with us to help me out and they were great helpers, getting pizza for the kids, pouring and refilling drinks etc.
Ali chose to have a cake made out of cupcakes.

Look ma, no hands!!!
Playing around on the rope swing and falling into the foam pit was one of the favorite things at the gym..
Chris made it home from Salt Lake midway through the party and the kids were so excited. Here he is with Jace and Ali in the pit!
Group photo of Ali and her friends in the pit - look closely and you'll see the girls.

It was such a fun day for these two girls! We all had a good time, I even took a turn on the rope swing, it's a lot harder to get out of the foam pit than you would imagine! Neither group seemed to mind that the others were there as the gym was plenty big and tons of things for everyone to do! I don't know why it took me so long to figure out how much easier it would be to have 1 party for 2 girls then trying to have them individually! I'll have to remember this for the years to come! Happy Birthday Emily and Ali, we sure love having you in our family and enjoyed spending the day with you and your friends!!

Looks so fun! What a great idea to have a party there. Was it expensive? We took gymnastics there awhile back... and I gotta admit... I always wanted to jump in the foam pit!
ReplyDeleteWhat a FABULOUS idea! Looks like the PERFECT way to celebrate! Looks like everyone had a great time (even Chris in the pit! Glad he was able to make it home!)
