Bouncin' Birthday Bash!

A few days after Luke's birthday, we had a joint party with one of his best pals, Andie. Andie turned four the day before Luke. Her mom, Scarlett, and I have been friends since first grade. We were roommates all four years at A&M, and have remained close since. The icing of the cake is that she lived on the same street as me in Rockwall, and that Andie and Luke are a day apart. We were also in the same life group at church, so we decided to just throw one big party and split the cost. We had a blast at Bounce Town in Wylie! Luke still talks about how fun that day was!

The party started in the huge bounce room. I've been to many bounce places, but this one definitely has the biggest play area with much more for the kids to do. They were all over the place, having the time of their lives!

Luke loved the big slide:

His buddy, Tanner, was all smiles, too!


Here's the sweet birthday girl, Andie Noel. Love that sweet face!
Jack was pleased with a simple playground ball:

I tried to get a picture of the three amigos, Luke, Tanner and Andie. They were in the same class in church...Tanner just a couple of weeks older than L & A. They are so much fun all together...Luke misses these two!
Andie's little brother, Will:

Sweet daddy holding his sweet curly-headed boy:
Reid was cracking us up pacing around with his hands behind his back. He reminded me of his police officer daddy, just checking everybody out, making sure they were okay.
Isabel...also a week older than Luke. She and Luke play SO WELL together. They just like having fun!
Isabel's daddy, Kyle and brother, Isaac:

The curly-headed buddies, Hudson and Jack:
They had a really neat play area for the younger kids, too. It was perfect!
Andie-girl:

Luke's first ever game of air hockey. He LOVED it!
After playing for over an hour, the tired and thirsty kiddos went to the party room for some pizza and drinks:


Love this prissy one of Andie:

Luke decided he wanted Handy Manny decor:
He spotted his birthday cupcake:
During "Happy Birthday" - love that grin:
Jack was classic Jack. He loves to make a mess!


Luke gave his cupcakes two thumbs up!

Sweet birthday buddies:

Present time! Luke is still so innocent about gifts, which I love about him. I'm thankful that the world hasn't tainted his view of holidays and celebrations yet. Everything is so consumer-driven, but he doesn't realize it yet. So, he never asks for certain toys; he's just thankful for whatever he gets! He, of course, LOVED every gift he opened, studied them carefully, hugged and thanked each person they were from and was just really sweet and calm. Made this momma proud!

He even wanted me to read every card to him!

Happy birthday, Luke & Andie! We had such fun partying with both of you, and we're so glad that God created you BOTH!
