For those who don't know what a Playscape is: a church nearby has an indoor jungle gym that easily goes up three stories high and ends in a long long long slide down to the bottom again. The kids adore it... I'm not so sure the adults like me who tagged along for the climb up thought it was quite as amazing, but seeing and sharing in the laughs and giggles made up for the tight squeezes and dizzy heights! As AJ is part monkey, such an adventure was a perfect way to celebrate being TWO!
So here are some shots in between climbs to the top that we could get...
All our friends (well some were still climbing, but to get this many kids to sit when they were having fun is a feat in itself):
After playing for awhile, it was time to serve up some dessert. While Mommy made a "soccer" ball cake out of cupcakes, per the birthday boy's request, since our party was at 9am we also served AJ's favorite: donuts! With some fruit and juice boxes, it made for a somewhat well-rounded start to everyones day!
Everyone gathered around and sang Happy Birthday - AJ snuggled close and had to think about his wish for a moment before blowing out the candle...
It was a great party, AJ had fun and so did we! The kids left with little bags of gummy bears (because I wasn't really sure if the donuts, cupcakes and juice boxes were enough sugar opps he-he) and hugs from AJ. We have such amazing friends and family surrounding us here - such a blessing to get to share our special days like this with them!
So it is official little man - you are TWO! Two years old, two parties to celebrate... Hope your wishes come true sweetheart!
