Day Two Hundred Thirty Two 2011















Grandson Elijah turned 5 years old on August 17. His big birthday bash was today at his house with lots of family and friends on hand to help him celebrate this milestone. It was hot today, so the kids had a blast on the giant slip and slide, and the grown ups enjoyed the cool mist blowing on us from the slide. We enjoyed yummy cake, punch and ice cream, and watching Elijah open his cards and gifts was like watching a whirl wind. The kids each took a swing at the T Rex pinata, then raced around collecting the candy that showered out of it after they broke it. Elijah seemed to enjoy his big day. I'm always thankful to get to be a part of watching him grow up. Happy Birthday, Elijah! I love you!!

Fun party! He was like a whirlwind opening his presents! The only time I saw him stop was to sit to blow out candles! :)
