Plus, our good friends Jessica and Doug also came to celebrate! And, of course, all of the family were there including my parents and Matthew's parents.
I was very glad I had planned to have it at the bounce house this time because this made it so much easier on me. Being as busy as I've been, this was very nice!

There's a story behind this... I had originally planned to give each child their very own goldfish as favors. I purchased cute little fish bowls at JoAnns a few months ago and everything. Well, two nights before the party, I went to Petsmart to buy the blue rocks for the fish bowls. One of the sales associates informs me that goldfish won't live in fish bowls. "What do you mean goldfish don't live in a bowl?!" Go figure- goldfish need ventilation. They will only live a few hours in a bowl. So back to JoAnns I went to return the bowls. The last thing I wanted was to give 18 children a dead goldfish! So these tiny takeout boxes that were originally supposed to hold the fish food for each child's new pet, ended up just containing goldfish crackers. It was still cute and fit the theme. And honestly, being as busy as I've been, I was kinda relieved I didn't have to mess with those live fish. This was much easier!
These were the buckets for each child to collect their pinata candy
Luke and Hudson enjoyed playing air hockey before bouncing. Luke would cry every time Hudson scored a point because the puck would disappear. He was confused on the concept until he finally learned he could just lean down and get the puck back out.
Luke loved sliding and bouncing!

Singing to Luke... He didn't quite know what to think of all of the attention! He was in awe.
He blew out his candle on his first try!

Back at my parents' house opening gifts. We spent the evening visiting with Derek, Kitty and Will, since they were in town.
It's fun to be TWO!
