Pump It Up

We were invited to a birthday party at Pump It Up. It's one of those places filled with different inflatable bounce houses, slides, and obstacle courses.


In other words, the kids run and jump and the photos all come out exceptionally blurry. That is Sweet Son going down a big slide. Trust me, it is.


Here Sweet Daughter is climbing up one part of an obstacle course. 


That's better, climbing through (it has plenty of clearance for her) and not blurry!


It's a much tighter squeeze for me going through.


There are a couple of things that everyone should know about Pump It Up. First, this place would be much more fun without all the kids getting in the way. I appreciate that they let adults participate, but it's hard to race through an obstacle course when preschoolers are in front of you. (We refrained from pushing them aside or pulling them off.) Second, everyone who participates for the full 90 minutes (the party is 2 hours, but 90 minutes was in the inflatables) will want a nap after. We had planned on letting the kids sleep and getting stuff done around the house... instead we all took a nice afternoon nap.

  1. Yeah, those places are a sweat box. The kids have been to two parties in the last month at a PIU. Good times had all 'round.

    1. I love when I can "sneak" in a big workout while my kids are happy and playing with friends. :)
