Saturday was Taitan's birthday party. Lucky for me, I didn't have to work at my internship so I was able to help Alicen get the party set up and going. For his birthday we decided to get a bouncy house with a slide. Although we had a lot of other issues the bounce house was a hit. We had a picnic for dinner (thanks for Krista and Derek for letting us take over there yard) with hot dogs and all the fixings.
The problems we had were not really anything we could do anything about. The bounce place brought the house over mid morning when the party did not start until 4pm. From mid morning to the end of the night, we had rain which I had to run out deflate the house, undo the blower to get it under the car port. Than the wind picked up as the party started making so we had to deflate the house again and wait for it to get better. Just as the wind got better the power went out for 2 hours. About a half hour before the guy was to pick it up the power came back on. Lucky for us the guy was OK with sticking around, eating some cupcakes and letting his little girl play with the kids for a while longer.
All in all it was a good party. I will tell you what, those bounce house can be a baby sitter. Everyone loved playing in it and didn't want to get out. They could have played in that thing for hours. Even a couple adults got in and jumped around with the kids. We all had a blast. It was a lot of fun. I would recommend a bounce house for any ones birthday.
