Jake's 3rd Birthday Party!

We had Jake's 3rd birthday party at the McWane Center on Saturday. I was a little apprehensive about it because it was our first time to do a party outside our home & I've never been to a birthday party there. They did a good job & I LOVED just being able to show up, hang out with guests at the party & then have them clean up! I was a little bummed that they had strict rules about no hanging things & no balloons (which basically meant no decorations). Which of course once we got there, they said of course we could hang things (darn me being a rule follower!). So I threw up a little photo banner that I had planned hanging from the tablecloth. Oh well, my pocketbook is smiling at least. The best part of the party is all of our friends & family that joined us. Jake had been so excited about the party and he was not disappointed. He loved playing with his friends & especially loved the cake. Thank you everyone who came and made his day so special.

With our McWane package, you got to pick a "specialist" to come & do a party demonstration. We picked a "bubble-ologist ".

He really enjoyed it

The setup was very nice. One part of the room was used for the birthday cake and the other part of the room the kids could just play in. It allowed for plenty of room for the adults. We had the party room for an hour then everyone got to go enjoy the children's museum.
