Joe's 3rd birthday party was this past weekend at Pump It Up. Finley had a fantastic time and once again, she was slow to warm up to the jumpy houses. The typical Pump It Up party consists of 45 minutes of bounce house and slide fun in one room, then another 45 minutes of bounce house and slide fun in room two, finishing with pizza and cake with the birthday boy. All and all, a perfect party. Especially for Finley. She takes a solid hour to warm up to the idea of going in the bounce house, but once she gets the nerve to do it, she loves it! I took her down the slide in room one and she was not a happy camper. When we got to room two, she spied her favorite bounce house with the basketball nets and balls. She spent the majority of the party jumping inside and playing with all the balls. Clifton did take her through the bounce obstacle course, but I don't think she was a huge fan. The funniest part was on Monday, she kept asking to go to Joe's house.
"Joe's house has bouncy houses"
"Joe's house has slides"
"Joe's house has balls"
"Joe's house has pizza"
"I wanna go to Joe's house"
Don't we all...
Daddy did what he had to do to get Finley through the obstacle course. She was all tears once we had to leave the bouncey house room, but the tears stopped as soon as she heard "pizza" and "cake". The fantastic cake was Shannon's last cake before the arrival of little Shelleycarrieharriet. It was delicious!
