Today is Emma's birthday party at Go Ninja in Waunakee. Her actual birthday is July 29 (Monday). Her Mom said she had been to a place like this in Milwaukee that was much bigger. For the Madison area, this is as good as it gets. I'll drop in a bunch of pictures and put captions on them.

the ramp in the back was the favorite place

the boys had the most trouble getting up - I think it is because they are heavier

I enjoyed helping kids with my arms to get them to the 1st and 2nd tier levels

I thought I would take a video from the top to better show what it is like.

The place is kind of like American Ninja Warrior, with a lot of different obstacles. 

we had to sign a waiver form

Here are all the kids at the party - it was from 10:45 to 12:30 (sharp) - there was another party after us.  

Emma got to wear a red band around her head - since it was her party, she got to skip the line to do whatever she wanted if there was a group of kids

We had Pizza Hut and cupcakes. All seven birthday parties this summer has pizza.

After the party, he had gymnastics. I went to Woodman's - Heidi sent me this photo.

After gymnastics, we read our 50th book of the summer, which entitled us to a prize from the library.

grabbing a free book

he got an "Ants" National Geographic book and free tickets to Eugster's Goat Farm

He played LEGO at the library until it closed at 5PM. 

The next stop was to Heidi's co-workers place again to take care of the cat. Kai got to go along this time. This is the last time we're taking care of LP.

For dinner we had pasta. Someone forgot to empty out the penne from the bin before they added the rotini! See the mismatch from the box?
