Sweet little Emma turned FOUR (I'm having a hard time believing lately that all these kids I've known since they were born are turning into preschoolers and kindergartners...) and celebrated at GymSouth today with a Paw Patrol themed birthday party. The kids played HARD for over an hour and a half, with only a short break for the Happy Birthday song and some cupcakes. They took home little "adopted" stuffed puppies, which they all LOVED. James and Cora had so much fun hanging out with all their buddies, and they were exhausted by the time we left (the party almost directly followed our 2 hours on the soccer fields). The trip to Walmart afterward involved two carts and two nearly napping children curled into the baskets...
As always, most of these pictures are blurry or partly blurry. There's just something about the lighting in this place (and the speed at which the kids are moving!)

Cora and the birthday girl, hopping like bunnies on the giant trampoline
Mason, Gage, Cora, Coltin, and Will battling with Jay and Ned
Gage had a great time playing with Jay, until he didn't. Note to Jay: 3-year-olds do not like to be used as shields during foam block wars with other daddies...
This picture cracks me up... James tried to simultaneously run away from Jay while also fighting/defending himself. Good effort, at least.
Cora and Coltin built a fort in the middle of the foam pit and hid in there together forever, turning away any and every other kid that tried to hide with them.
John, David, Saylee Grace, Mary Morgan, Mason, Gage, Will, Lauren, James, Emma, Cora, and Coltin (and a couple little girls in there that I don't know!)
I still can't believe they all agreed to wear party hats and sit still for photos!
Happy Birthday Emma! And thank you for the awesome party invite!

Jayda and Lizzy are the other two, they are classmates. :) Jay was awesome with the kids, no worries about Gage's whiney-ness.
