Happy Birthday Jackson!

Today we went to Jump Planet for Jackson's 4th birthday! Sydney of course had a blast, she loves the place so much. Last time we went she mastered climbing up the big slide ladder all by herself, and did all the other play areas by herself too. She's my brave big girl! She was holding her own with the boys and the big kids.

Sydney leading the pack climbing up the ladder-okay maybe she was slowing down the pack bu she did it by herself! It was funny though, some of the dads just carried her up after a while, it was quicker and she enjoyed the free ride.
























Sydney decided to slide down on her front for a while. One particular run she actually rolled over a few times-we weren't sure if there were going to be tears or smiles. She loved it.

This is quite possibly the most unflattering picture of me, but also the funniest one. We decided to all go down at the same time-it almost worked, haha.

We had a blast today, what a fun party! I think the adults had as much fun as the kids did with the slide and bouncing and climbing.
It was actually really great going to a birthday party here because I wanted to check out the party room at the place anyway for Sydney's birthday party. The play area at Jump Planet is great, it's my favorite one of all the jump places. The party room there was a bit small for a birthday party with kids and all their parents. I guess when kids get older the parents just drop them off, but all the parents stayed so it was a bit tight.
There also wasn't a particular area designated for opening presents so most the people couldn't see what gifts Jackson was opening. Although I like the play area better at Jump Planet, I think we might consider have Sydney's birthday party at Pump it Up because the party rooms are big, and they have this cool inflatable king/queen chair the kids can sit in when they open their gifts. We'll see-I have seven months to figure it out and I probably need to check out the other place again because the only time I have been was for Cameron's birthday and I wasn't checking it out for future parties at the time. And yes I am a perfectionist when it comes to parties. ;)
