Prophet's Birthday Party

Tonight was Prophet's birthday party. We had almost 25 people there and fun was had by everyone. We ate pizza! We chowed on chocolate-chip cookie dough pie! We squirted each other with water guns! We ran thru the creek! We slid down slides wet from the last 18 hours of rain and got wet and seriously dirty butts! We threw water balloons at everyone! We got water balloons thrown at us! We got wet! We got dirty! We ignored the fact that it was so humid and sticky that the birthday card envelopes, paper plates, and napkins were actually limp from the moisture! We
had a wonderful time!! We worried part of the day that we'd get rained out, but in the end it didn't matter, we just relaxed and enjoyed ourselves!!

Just hanging out waiting for the pizza to arrive!





All the dirty, wet, and sweaty kids running into the pavilion from the playground for pizza!



Daddy prayed for our pizza and our awesome ten year old before we all dug in!!



Here's an actual picture of me. I'm lighting the candles so someone else had the camera!! I'm the one in the red shirt!


The Birthday Boy blowing out 10 candles on his birthday pie!!





Getting ready for the big water balloon fight! There were about 225 balloons for 8 kids to share! By the time we started the war, they were already wet from playing with water guns, in the creek, and on the still wet playground. The balloons were just the icing on the cake!!










Uncle Smart Guy and our niece Nini!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PROPHET! IT'S BEEN A FUN TEN YEARS BIG GUY!

Looks like the party was A LOT of fun. I almost wish my kids' birthdays were in the warmer months. Our celebrations are always indoors because we live in the frozen tundra of the north.
