So in January at Tate's birthday party Ethan mentioned how disappointed he was last fall that we didn't do something special for his 16th birthday.  I felt HORRIBLE!!!  I remembered asking him what he wanted to do for his birthday but we never came up with a plan.  We made him a cake and bought him a nice watch and called it good.  Or so I thought!

Well, I decided to throw him a surprise party in February.

We love to watch the show, "American Ninja Worrier" together as a family.  On the show amazing athletes compete in crazy obstacle courses.

A new local gym built one of these obstacle courses so I thought he and his friends would have so much fun playing at the gym for his party.

We invited a few friends and took Ethan to the gym and they had a ball!  Oh my goodness it was fun!  Who knew teenage boys could have so much fun playing!

The Warp Wall is a favorite from the show.  It's about 14 feet high and quite the challenge.  Ethan was able to do it after about 3 tries.

We all had a great time and I guess I need to do a better job celebrating each of my children's birthdays!!

Happy Birthday Kid!!
