Grayson celebrated his 8th birthday at Windy City Ninjas. He invited his whole class plus 6 boys from the other class. I was surprised when all but 9 kids said yes. There were 28 kids (+2 siblings of a kid) and 17 adults so a total of 45 people. The first hour was spent on the equipment and the kids had a blast. They spent time trying to climb the wall (they had 3 different sizes) and I was amazed at how athletic these kids were and Daddy even climbed up the biggest wall to all the kids cheering. They also climbed up the walls, went on the obstacle course, went of the rock wall and went on the zip line wall. After the gym time the kids went into the food room for pizza, popcorn, fruit and cake. It was a little crazy with all the kids in the food room, but we made it work thank goodness to some friends and family. We handed out goodie bags and pinata candy at the end and the kids seemed to have a great time. We brought the gifts home and Grayson had fun opening them, although it took him several days to open them because he was a little overwhelmed. He got some amazing gifts including ninjago legos, mini golf, faux bow shooter, Super Mario shirt, frisbee and some many other cool gifts. Grayson had such a great birthday with his friends and it was so nice for us to meet the parents after being locked up for 18 months.
