The Birthday Luau

Asher cheesin for the cameras! He wanted to smother the flames with his fingers.


The garage before the party started. It looked pretty cute except for all the "garage stuff". We had tiki torches lining the basketball court part of the driveway too. Kept the bugs away pretty good.

And the Luau is over. Thank goodness! It was a lot of fun but a lot of work. I think we ended up with about 50 or so people here! Tristan turned eight years old on the 21st. Asher turned two on the 17th and Jeremy turned 31 on the 20th. WOW. My oldest is eight. weird. We ate lots of food, had cake and ice cream and played. I was on my fee the entire day doing stuff and thought I would die when I went to bed that night. Only to discover that I didn't die but the next morning, my body wouldn't work! My back was literally stuck. There was no way I was going to make it to church. I just rested all that Sunday and left the majority of the cleanup for Monday. On Monday our friends Jonah and Laura came over and helped us clean up and we had leftovers and cooked out. another good time. We also played cornhole!

Cornhole is the game that is sweeping the nation, Kevin!!! It goes by many names by it's called cornhole in the Cincinnati area where my family is from. I'll post some pics...I'm sure you've seen it before.
