Then at 8:30 in the morning, this showed up at our house:
We booked a Scooby-Doo moonwalk for Riley's party. The company we got it from set it up about two and a half hours before the party, so the kids would have a chance to jump in it before all of the party guests arrived.
Then my sister, Mary, came a little before the party to deliver Riley's cake. She made this Scooby-Doo cake. Isn't it awesome!!!
At about 11:00 people started coming. All of the kids couldn't wait to get their shoes off and start jumping!
We dragged the kids out long enough to eat pizza and open presents.My sister Amy found these Scooby-Doo action figures!!!
This is a picture of the mass chaos going on when Ri was opening his presents. It didn't phase him though, he just kept right on opening!
We all sang Happy Birthday to Riley and had cake and ice cream sandwiches!
One by one, our guests began to leave with reluctant children. We invited the neighborhood kids who were looking over at our yard longingly to jump, since we had the moonwalk all day. It was supposed to leave at 5:00, but they didn't come until 6:30 to pick it up. Which was nice for the kids. They had been jumping all day, so we thought they would not be too sad when the guy came to pick it up, but when they deflated it, Riley was very sad. His words were, "This stinks!" Here is a picture of his face after they took the moonwalk down.
So SAD!! =(
What a good day!!

Then it was back to jumping!

But, he quickly bounced back when he found out he could help deflate it by jumping on it. =)
What a good day!!
