HAPPY 4th Birthday R.J.!!!

My sister Shannon's son R.J. turned 4 in April and he had his birthday party at Pump it Up. It was so much fun! We had a whole warehouse room to ourselves which included about 6 inflatable activities. I didn't think Effie was going to like it very much, I wasn't sure if she would be afraid of this stuff since it is SO BIG...boy was I WRONG!!! She LOVED it! My Dad took her down that slide at least a dozen times. He also took her in the bounce house and the obstical course. I was so excited to see my Dad have so much fun with Effie, as he had just returned from Kuwait a few weeks prior to the party. Gabe had to work so he wasn't able to make it to the party, but Effie and I had so much fun!

R.J. had about 25 friends at his party!! He got a lot of neat presents. It was a Star Wars party, Shannon had me buy all the party stuff so I picked up these fun Darth Vador helmets that have 3D glasses on them and the napkins, plates, & cups were 3D!! It was so cool! I think all the kids (and adults) had plenty of fun!
