Happy 5th Bug!

August 26, 2009

Okay so the party for Max actually occured on August 16th but better late than never! We went to a place called Jeno's Pizza. They have a great play area. There are bikes, HUGE slide, tunnels to crawl through, a giant overhead bridge, mini disco... I could go on. You'll see some of it in the pics but I took 87 and well, that's a bit much to post! Here's a few of my fav's...

The room decorated with transformer colors and table setting. Such a boy!


The birthday cupcakes! Don't you just LOVE the colors. And talk about options... you could do colors for any event... the 4th red, white and blue, Halloween - orange and black. You get the idea.


Inside - so fun!


The giant bridge overhead leading to a castle turret.


Tunnels and things to climb.


Ball pit. I don't think they liked this too much :o)


GIANT SLIDE!!!!
Ava and Liam were fans. I even caught the Mom's and Dad's taking a ride.

The magic show about to begin... come on kids!


The magician's little helper -
THE BIRTHDAY BOY!

Look carefully at the bag...


Hey, where'd that bird come from?


I LOVE Raquel's face in this photo!
First he poured water in her ear, when nothing came out he tapped her head as she tipped it over the newspaper and then VOILA water came pouring out into the cup. You had to see it.


Even the parents enjoyed the show!


Of course he pulled a rabbit out of his hat before he left.


Ice cream anyone?
That came, of course, BEFORE the healthy pizza lunch.


Time to sing to the birthday boy.
I was so disappointed in the photo's here. There was sooooo much light from the window behind it washed out all my photos.



Blowing out the candles.


VIDEO!
If you have a few minutes watch this great video. It's in spanish but the magic is so fun.
First let me catch you up to speed. The magician pulled an egg out of Max's bum. Disturbing I know. Then he cracked the egg into the bowl he is holding. He took a shirt from Arturo and lined his magic hat with it and put the raw egg inside. I wish you could make the video bigger because the horror on Max's face at the end is priceless!
BTW - I understood the Spanish so much better when I watched the video than the first time around. There is hope for me!


Happy Birthday Bug!
