Nineteen kids
Two babies
Nine Moms
Two Dads
One Aunt Mimi
One big princess bounce house in our backyard
Lots of squeals and giggles
One bloody nose
Countless head bumps
Some tears
One Dude checking out the bounce house
One Daddy holding a baby while bouncing
(Two middle aged sisters jumping before the guests arrived)

Sixteen googley-eyed pumpkins painted
Eleven taken home
Five remained
Eight punch balloons
Ten kids who wanted to play with punch balloons
Four popped punch balloons
Thirty-one people singing "Happy Birthday" to
One little three year old who hid behind her paper plate
Five friends who stepped in to help blow out the candles
One BIG purple and yellow cake with some frosting missing

Nineteen children all demanding frosting flowers
One happy three year old actually getting a frosting flower
Five princess dresses
One mermaid dress
Eight little girls and one little boy who wanted to wear the dresses
Six little girls dressed up jumping in the bounce house
One major meltdown
Two little girls who almost became permanent members of the
family because they didn't want to leave, ever
One little girl who wants the bounce house to stay forever!
A thousand smiles
and only a few pictures taken
(We were just too darn busy!)

and 1 Uncle Stu who didn't get to partially deflate a bounce house with his manic jumping...
But it is funny how it adds up, I believe there is certainly a correlation of available dresses and expectant meltdowns. Plus, the dude's face on the bounce house is priceless.
What a lovely party!
Intense and great fun! Maybe we can get a bounce between birthdays and just bounce like mad at some visit! lol
Glad Zoe now feels like 3!
Now that is some party!
Love the numbers there. You are just too creative...making the rest of us look bad. ;)
Glad Zoe had such a great day!
What a fabulous party!!!
