Noah's Pump It Up Party

We went to SA for Noah's birthday party, on Saturday, September 1. (Labor Day Weekend) Sam's mom came from Utah, for a few days, and was there too. The party was at the "Pump It Up". (They had a party there before, for Eli...and I remember how much Noah wanted to sit in the big, "king of the party chair". I have one picture here that captures his excitement and happiness, perfectly. (In fact I will put that picture first.) All of the pictures are just random photos of the fun events there. Everything from slides, play cars, neon guns, black light rooms, and a really fun FLOOR with changing pics to jump and step on. I actually got more fun pics of Luke than of Noah. Audrey had invited Noah's entire class at school. At first it looked like not very many were going to show up... but they just arrived a few minutes late. Beautiful cake and party favors. And lots of gifts.

THE PARTY!

Audrey, Annie, and I put together a fun birthday party for Weston. I did some decorations and shields, Annie made the cake, and Audrey is the expert, scavenger hunt/activities planner! Weston wanted a "Roman Soldier" theme- ha. We did the best we could ;) It was especially fun to have cousins there together for the activities. It was a crazy long evening, and then the Simms still needed to pack and load to be ready to travel on Sunday.

Here is the list of activities for the scavenger hunt- (all of the clues were on a qr code and taped around the house.)
1. Bunk room fort with "red solo cup" wall building.
2. Building a cookie Colosseum, with virtual reality head gear.
3. Jousting match.
4. Crescent moon, Oreo cookies on your face.
5. Volcano eruption.
6. Paint ball war with shields.
Then pizza dinner, and gifts, and cake.
(Get ready for photo overload- I took tons of pics.)
