Main Event

One of Dax's classmates, Jonathan, celebrated his 4th birthday at Main Event. Noah and Nash from school were at the party, too, as well as, several other family and friends. The party started at the bowling lanes. Dax has never bowled before, but he enjoyed it. They had pop-up gurad rails to keep the balls out of the gutters, and a ramp they could use to get the ball rolling in the right direction. At one point, it was "disco bowling" with the lights off and lazers and fog. Keeping 20 4-year-olds focused amid all the noise was "interesting", but we made it to the back room for pizza and cupcakes.

One of the party guys did a magic trick of turning a quarter into a penny. Dax was fascinated! When the guy gave a quarter to Dax, he tried and tried to roll it between his fingers just like he'd seen. He really wanted to figure it out!

After the food, we got to play arcade games. We did mostly driving games, but Dax and Noah both enjoyed the jet pack "ride". Parents and kids were both exhausted by the end, but smiling.
