For Jacob's 23rd birthday, (in honor of Michael Jordan) he decided that he wanted to get some AIR.
That meant one thing—TUMBLE GYM.

I failed pretty hard at getting a cool jumping shot, but I had a lot of fun throwing some flips and passes. It has probably been years since I've executed a back-handspring on a tumble track, so I was a little nervous that my skills would be rusty (and they were). But here is the proof that I can still tumble:

Jacob didn't believe that he could learn to do a back-handspring, but he didn't know that for my 7th grade paper I wrote an expository essay on how to do a back-handspring. In other words, I'm a pro instructor and I learned him good.

After the tumble gym, more friends joined the party at our house for cake, ice cream and a backyard bbq.

Want to know a secret? I totally forgot to put oil the birthday cake. FAIL!!
But it still tasted super good thanks to the fact that it was drenched in sweetened condensed milk and caramel.
Everybody loved it—or at least they said so.

I'd say it was a pretty perfect 23rd birthday. We got the jersey. We got the AIR. We got hot dogs. We got the SPACE JAM. We got the friends and the good times.
We got the happy birthday for my honey.

ok, i am super impressed by your tumbling skills holli! i'm even more impressed that you taught jacob so fast. he looked like a pro. what a fun party. wish we could have been there to celebrate! and ryan would have LOVEd to go to a tumble place like that.
I didn't realize all the skills you have, Holli. Wow!! and teaching Jacob to do that back flip was impressive. We will have to take Travis and Josh there the next time and you can coach them into doing some flips. Thanks for giving our son such a fabulous B-day. You are such a great wife! Oh, I just noticed that i am signed in as Travis, but its Mom.
