Gavin has been talking about and planning his birthday forever so we decided that this year would be a good time to have his first party with friends. We knew he wanted a Spiderman/superhero party and that there was no way we could do it at our house so we started to look for places and found a fun bounce house that also did themed parties. I was a little nervous about how it would all go. How Gavin would be with all the kids, if he would include all the kids or just play with certain friends, if he would listen/get super wild, would anyone come etc. We had about half of his class RSVP which ended up being the perfect amount and honestly it couldn’t have gone better. The place had two rooms where the kids each spent 30 minutes playing in the bounce houses and going down the slides, then they had 30 minutes of superhero training where Ryan graciously volunteered to be the bad guy and then we ended with cake and presents. The two hours went really fast. I think all of the kids had fun and they all played together which was amazing. Gavin got some really fun gifts and some really cool birthday cards.

Sunday was Gavin’s actual birthday and I was going to surprise him with balloons in his room before he woke up be he got up way too early so we ended up surprising him with them in the kitchen. We let Gavin open his presents from us that morning and then had yummy donuts for breakfast. The rest of the day we just hung out at home and had some quiet time which was nice until 3 when Gavin had his first soccer practice (more to come on that.) Overall I think he had a great birthday. Thankfully he hasn’t started planning for next year yet J. Now on to Wyatt’s birthday celebrations.
