Birthday Party Day

The boys had their birthday parties today (after also having a family birthday party in VA during our visit). We rented a bounce house and had lots of fun.






Lucas had his party first, in the morning. His friends jumped in the bounce house and slid down its slide, then enjoyed the lovely cake he selected from the bakery (after rejecting my offer to make him one).






Lucas received many great presents, including a large dragon and the DVD of How to Train Your Dragon from his best friend, Sydney.







It was 100 degrees today, so after Lucas's party, we decided to try out the sprinkler system within the bounce house, because it was going to be much too hot for Josh's party. The bounce house had a hook-up for the garden hose, which then sprayed the water in an arch over the top of the slide (to mist it into a water slide). It made all the difference in the world. We quickly got the word out to our guests to come with their swimsuits, and everyone had a blast.


Josh let me make his Power Rangers Samurai cake, as long as I wrote his name in cursive:













We had a really fun day. Happy Birthday (again) Josh and Lucas!
