Charlotte's 3rd Birthday - January 22nd, 2011
Celebrate classmate Charlotte's birthday at Webster's . . .
Jump N' Jungle w/bounce houses then cake & pizza party
Erin wants to see the ball bounce in the house
Daddy & Erin together watch other things bounce
Erin has two balls to bounce in the house now
Momma takes Erin to the top of the double slide house
The come down the long turning slide
You need a little self propellent other than gravity
Erin starts to understand what a bounce house is for
Momma, can do it myself, let me give it a try
Momma brings Erin down on the fast slide
Alex comes down the fast slide on her own
Gravity assist eventually can't override the friction
Erin leads the way and gets to choose her slide
Erin takes the longer slide on her belly, feet first
Alex runs down the slide and plops down for a bounce
Tough climb for Alex in the obstacle course bounce house
Success is rewarded with a face first dive down
I like the fast paced face first dive!
Erin gives the climb a shot, it is hard!
Momma helps her up and discovers it's not easy w/socks on
Ready, let's go down together, Erin!
Wow, that was fun, let's do it again!

Alex catches her breath before climbing the rungs again
Time to assemble for a group photo!
Hoping for an 80% face the camera and 50% smile rate
Check out the princess theme birthday cake
Alex left the scene but Erin faces the camera. Birthday girls older sister makes the group photo memorable
The party room is readied and the kids prepare to enter
All sit down at the table for Little Ceasars & Capri-Sun
Momma helps Erin eat while Alex works on a slice herself
Charlotte enjoys a slice with big sister & Alex to the left
Time to light the candles and sing Happy Birthday
With a big puff a wind, the candles go out
Erin offers the services of her concentrated wind device
Even Daddy gets a slice of cake!
Gotta watch the girls & check for extra pizza
Erin & Alex sit together and enjoy their cake
What a well behaved group of kids!
Alex & Erin focus on the icing only, another slice please
Charlotte is done with the cake, let's open some presents!
The kids gather as Charlotte digs into her gifts
She finally gets to the big gift from Alex & Erin
Her daddy helps hold it while she tears into the wrapping
She finds a pair of pony purses and princess sippy cups
Awesome! Alex & Erin are invited next year!
After the party, the girls dress up for a family portrait
Practice smiling for the church photo album
