Nicholas's birthday party

Nicholas' birthday party was a little delayed this year due to, you guessed it, softball, among other things. So the Saturday after Thanksgiving, he and several of his classmates gathered at Tataru's Gym in west Knoxville.

This is my favorite kind of birthday party because everyone (even the grownups) gets to run and jump and tumble the whole time. And then there's cake! What could be better?





Jumping into the pit was very popular.

Here's Nicholas.




And Megan.








And DAVID.

Look at Ramsey!










And Kirby. This went on all afternoon.








You could try climbing, or jumping, or balancing.












And, really, the rope swing. Who could resist?












Follow that with cake and presents and it makes for a pretty perfect afternoon!
