Turning 7!

This year for Andrew's birthday, we did something we'd never done before....held the party somewhere other than our house!  It was his golden birthday (A big thing when you are a kid!) so we let him pick (within reason) where he wanted to go.  So after some deliberation he decided on SkyZone, which is an indoor trampoline park.  He had a blast!

They have a lot of fun stuff to do on the trampolines.  One of the 1st stops was the foam pit.  There are long, narrow trampolines that you can bounce on and then get some height (if you want) and bounce into a pit full of foam blocks.  We enjoyed watching all the crazy ways they would try to land (flips, cannon ball, belly flop, etc.).

The boys also spent some time trying to get a slam dunk.  They defiantly got some air, and we only ended up getting the ball stuck once :-)

Dodge ball was definitely a popular thing to do, and the boys spent a lot of time in the dodgeball courts.

After an hour of jumping, dodgeball, etc. it was time for pizza, cake, and presents.  They were all sweaty messes, but you could tell they had fun!

Time for Cake!

It was nice to not have a mess to clean up at home, and Skyzone was really great with the kids.  It also was very helpful that Aunt Lynn came to help supervise :-)  3 adults for 9 kids made it much more manageable.  Thanks Aunt Lynn!

On Andrew's actual birthday (June 7th) he got to have birthday cupcakes for breakfast (Jenna & Mike thought that was pretty cool too).

 Then it was time for presents:
