Birthday Bash










Last weekend we had Cole and Jack's birthday party. We held it at Polaris Point, which is a Navy facility with a nice beach. We woke to thunder and lightning and waited for skies to brighten. They did for a short period but when we arrived at Polaris to set up, we stood under drenching rain and it was quite windy. We were trying to decide whether or not to move the party indoors when I realized that my car battery was dead and we were there to stay. As our guests (about 25 kids and their parents) arrived at 4 PM the skies cleared and the weather was perfect. Kids played in the sand, climbed on the iceberg, swam, ran in the parking lot chasing balloons and had a wonderful time. And to top it all off, we were able to watch the most incredible sunset before heading home. We were blessed in so many ways with this day and, most importantly, the boys had a birthday party they will never forget!
