Almost Twelve

Stockton had his birthday party today. I can't believe he is almost 12! His birthday actually is on Saturday, but Stockton really wanted his party at Airborne. (A trampoline arena) When I looked into their birthday party packages I noticed it was A LOT cheaper to have the party on a weekday. So that is what we did. Anyway, Stockton had a great time. He has wanted to play dodge ball here and was able to spend quite a bit of time doing that. Isaac, Logan, Jordan, Will, Ben, Adam, Josh, Darby and Noah were able to come. Stockton's other friend Josh cracked his knee cap two days ago, so he wasn't able to be here. I am glad the party is over with and we can just celebrate as a family on his actual birthday. I put way too many pictures on this post. I guess that is what happens when I actually remember to bring my camera card!

Jorja loved climbing up this ladder to ring the bell. Mike took these pictures from the party room. It was really cool because they had windows that overlooked all three areas of the arena.

Stockton - LOVE this boy!

They had a 'high dive' pit. It was probably about three meters. Preston wanted to jump, but was a little scared. I picked him up and dropped him in (with his permission).

The chocolatiest cake he could get from Cold Stone. Delicious.

Preston got some chocolate ice cream on his nose. The boys thought that was really funny. Big mistake! Preston was in heaven with the attention and soon had chocolate ice cream all over his face. I wonder if he will be the class clown when he is in grade school. Ugh!

Now that's mischievous!

The final product.

Luckily Mike got Preston out of that situation before he could make a real mess! Anyway, today turned out to be a success because Stockton had a wonderful time.
