Ben's Birthday

Ben you know turned 8 on July 28, but we had to celebrate on the 29th. With July birthdays there is only so many things you can do and the most popular party is a...you guessed it...a swimming party! Ben tells everyone "I bet I can tell you what I have worn to every one of my birthday parties." People look at him funny and the he says "a swimsuit!" And he is right! For every one of his parties he has worn a swimsuit! I am hoping soon we can come up with something different! But he loves to swim and he doesn't love much so swimming party it is. This year we just went with a Splish, Splash theme and had beach balls and water guns. He had a good time even though most all of his friends were out of town for his party. I promised next year I would send out a "save the date" notice so everyone would be in town! We did the party late in the afternoon and the weather was great! I remember last year just dying of heat but this year I was able to leave the party dry and not drenched in sweat!! We had a great time and I still can't believe he is 8 years old!
