Birthday Party!!!!!
posted on 04/19/2009
A week after the big 5 birthday, Grace and 20 of her closest friends from day care and preschool and our friends' kids descended on House of Bounce. If you have never been to HOB, it is a HUGE room full of multiple inflatable bouncing toys...a moonbounce, an inflatable slide, and even an obstacle course. Very cool for the 4-8 year old set. Don' t tell us parents that though - we have just as much fun playing!
The party was a hit and I event managed to get the exact cake requested by our little diva. You see, we had 2 parties - one on her real birthday with close friends and family and then the HOB party. For the family party, we HAD to have a Princess cake. Ask anyone who was here - NO ONE ate the cake after Grace coughed on it while blowing out her candles. Luckily I bought cupcakes too.
The cake at her Kids Party was a disaster to order but all the kiddos loved it. High School Musical cake with music notes and a cd case for Grace to take home. I spent 40 minutes on the phone with the grocery store trying to order it before hanging up on them. Then a trip to another store to place the actual order when they told me they werent sure they could deliver the specific cake by the time of the party. I was THRILLED when I went to pick it up and there it was....in all its HSM glory.....the High School Musical cake. The party was saved.
Pictures of the party are posted - enjoy!
