He's 6

That little man of mine turned 6 yesterday! Good grief.... Frankly I'm amazed we've had no stitches or broken bones up to this point.

We took a few of his buddies from school to the rock climbing place for his party. I've never had a party someplace other than the house, but it was nice! He's had a baseball party, a pirate party, a monster truck party, a camping party, a pool party, and now this rock climbing party.

At our particular place, they have you watch a short video with the instructions and then they run you through a short 'skills test' out on the wall. Then your free to climb.

There's Bee, she loves to climb too.

They have a 'party room' but it's the same room they show the video in. We snuck in very briefly for brownies (no cake for Lou) and presents.

Our place requires a 1:3 ratio for adult belayers to kids. We had a 1:1 so the kids were able to climb and climb!

Here are the invites. I cut out the black part with my silhouette. It's an image I found through google images and edited a little. It was a girl with a ponytail. I fixed that right up though.

I also used that same image on some tags we attached to some cliff bars that we sent home with the guests.

We had water bottles for all the kiddos too. I bought 1$ water bottles at target and covered the image on them with a vinyl circle. Then I cut out everybody's name and added that to the bottles. They worked out great.
