Oli's 9th Birthday Party

Playing catch up here…Oli’s 9^th birthday party was at SkyHigh, the Trampoline place in Totem Lake.  He had 15 kids there and they did some major jumping, bouncing and playing.  There is an open trampoline court, a dodgeball area and a very popular jumping pit. 

A photographer’s challenge…limited light and very quick kids.

Let the chasing begin.

This place sure tired them out!

Phineas and Ferb cake.  He chose it because it was unisex since he was inviting his two girlfriends – Grace and Parisa.  Grace is to his left.

And then the sugar kicked in.

Jackson is a friend of Oli’s but also of Julia’s.  Sweet kid.

And Jackson’s mom is a friend of mine. 

We are noticing so many changes with 3^rd grade.  A couple highlighted at his party….parents are comfortable leaving their kids for parties and now it is the custom to open the gifts.  It surprised me that for years now the gifts get taken home.  Other changes are noticed at school and sports…consistently higher expectations across the board.
