Day 13: Happy Birthday Harrison!

Saturday we attended the 2nd birthday of Gemma and Angus' friend Harrison. We had a great day packed with all kinds of fun, friends, and food. Hallie and Shannon hired the 2005 World Champion balloon Artist to entertain the kids. I have to say that this guy was so creative and I have never seen balloons like his creation. He made a huge flower for Gemma and panda for Angus. He also made Elmo, Blue's Clues, butterfly, a crocodile, giraffe, monkey, and a shark.

Angus found the ball pit and he absolutely loved it! I am going to have to find one of these in China for him. He could sit in it for hours!

And I will have to find one of these. I think there was a line of 1 and 2 year olds wanting to take a ride on this toy. Ride 'em Angus!

There was also a pinata. Here is the birthday boy making his attempt.

Gemma also took a few whacks.

As did Angus. I think about 10 kids hit this pinata at least 3 times a piece followed by Carson having another turn and then one of the dads tried to break it open. The thing didn't open until someone physically opening it.

In 1984 I was with a whole bunch of my cousins at one of the pizza joints with anamatronics singing. Not chuck e cheese. My cousin Robert was like 2 or 3 and he was playing in the ball crawl for a good while when the whole place stank up. The next thing you know his mom and all of the adults were telling the 6 of us why we had to IMMEDIATLY LEAVE! He shat everywhere.
