Nick's 4th Birthday Party

Last weekend we celebrated Nick's 4th a little early with a jumpy house, a slip 'n' slide and a bubble machine. Lots of kids and lots of fun!!! The jumpy house was a Halloween theme...the pumpkin head bobbed out while it was being blown up and I was mortified. But the best thing about it was it was free!!! And of course the kids couldn't have cared less (neither did the adults who took a few jumps - Christen and I got in a few russians and hurkies). Some pics below...(I will save the emotional dedication to my favorite 4 year old for Monday).

I was kind of disappointed that Nick requested "a giant chocolate chip cookie cake" this year. I was looking forward to making another "masterpiece"

Emma is too mature to have a chocolate face!

Totally astounded by the Wii we bought him. He didn't know what to say. Then finally, after 2 minutes, it dawned on him and in this picture the direct quote is, "after all these people go away can I play bowling?"
