Ryker's Birthday Party

We didn't have Rykers party until 2 weeks after his actual birthday. Ryker invited the kids from his primary class and our neighbors that he plays with to his party. Their are alot of kids in his primary class but I didn't want to leave anyone out and same with the neighbors. So adding everyone up and including our kids we had 17 people at his party. Of course the thought of all off those kids running around my house made me want to break out in hives so I had to find somewhere to take the party to. A couple of months ago Ryker was invited to a party held at a place called "Bounce!" It is an area with a ton of inflatables for the kids to play on. It is close to us and reasonably priced so that is where we were going. I didn't want to pay the extra money to reserve the party room so what we did was have the kids meet at our house and then we drove everyone there and then drove home after we all had our share of playing around!

I got in one of the inflatables with Rylee and Avynlea and Kefford got this picture of me about to go down the slide. Too blurry but a nice effort. :0)

Ryker and his friends all thought the Velcro wall was pretty cool. You put on the suit of Velcro and jump and stick yourself to the wall. It looked like alot of fun.

Happy fly on the wall. :0)

I had fun running around and playing with Rylee and Avynlea. They are such cute and happy girls!

They loved the slides and going down backwards was loads of fun!

Happy girls!

It was hard to get a non-blurry picture on these action shots. Maybe I should have adjusted my cameras settings. Hmmm would have been good.

Ryker really wanted to invite his cousin Bailey to come to his party. They are good friends and enjoy being together, it was really cool of his Dad to drive an hour to get him here. We had Bailey come on Friday and stay the night so the two of them could have some time to play.

Bailey was really sweet to Rylee and Avynlea and went down the slide a couple of times with them.

They loved going down as a train!

Party kids waiting for their turn on the Velcro wall.

More party kids waiting.

A picture of Ryker ready to take the leap!

Rylee got her Daddy to push her around in a fun little car. Towards the end Rylee got really tired of the place and laid down on the floor to fall asleep. I knew then that we should probably go on our way.

But not before I got a picture of Kenedy taking the leap.

And she's stuck!!

Time to get home and open presents. Rykers favorite part! :0)

The entire party!

Time for cake. I made chocolate cupcakes and then we got ice-cream cups and rootbeer or lemonade for all those kids.

The cupcakes were placed in the shape of an 8 for the birthday boy!

Happy Birthday to you!
Good blowing!

Rykers friend Teni showed how pooped I felt by the time it was all over, their is definitley a reason why I do not do these huge elaborate parties every year! Ha!
