A Jumpy Jumpy Princess Party

Today ranks way up there as far as fun level in Helen Grace’s book. Our neighbor, Mariella, celebrated her third birthday with a princess themed party, complete with a JUMPY JUMPY (bounce house)!! The rental company actually brought it over to their house last night, so Helen Grace had a private preview party with Mariella. Thirty minutes after her bedtime, the girls were still going strong, but when it was completely dark and the bugs were eating us alive, I had to carry her home as she cried, “Jumpy!!!!” This morning, it was the first thing on her mind, so I had to distract her with a Dance Along with Barney DVD until it was time for the party. While she showed no interest in any of the dressed-up princesses, horse-drawn carriage, and tiaras that were there, she went wild over the swingset and bounce house. So fun to see her so excited! Happy birthday, Mariella!
