We celebrated Miss Maggie's third birthday yesterday (although she's not according-to-hoyle three until Wednesday). We had the event over at Pump It Up Parties, which worked out rather well. For the uninitiated, Pump It Up Parties is a place where you can rent bigass party rooms that are full of bouncy-houses and giant inflatable slides and such. You get 90 minutes in the bouncy room while the staffers set up the party in the adjacent room. Then everyone heads over to the party room for birthday songs and cake and such. It all worked out really well because trying to corral about twenty 2-5 year-olds is virtually impossible otherwise.

Although 90 minutes in the bouncy room is a bit long. Every kid was pretty-much exhausted after an hour, and they were running on fumes by the end. Thankfully we were able to revive 'em with birthday cake and juice boxes before sending 'em home.
