Did I mention the party?

Grandson turned five and we, naturally, had a party; About a thousand people came.

Since he had started school this year, he had invited some of his classmates; all girls! The kid is a chick magnet! They love him. One in particular, loves to "take care of him" by leading him around and making sure he gets on the bus, etc. I think we had better keep a close eye on her!

Isn't she adorable?

So, they came to the party and left, looking like raisins! I think they only got out of the water long enough to eat cake.

Ok, so they also got out to open gifts.

AND....One of the highlights of the day was Pop-Pops ice cream. Where else can you go to a party and get your own pint (yes, pint) of ice cream?!
My lovely mother and my beautiful daughter didn't go near the water. My mom said her bathing suit has a hole in it's knee! Well, in any event, I think she looks pretty darn good for almost 80!
In all, it was a good day. We even had a surprise visit from my brother-in-law and his family whom we have not seen in about 4 years. It took about 5000 hours to clean up but in the end, it was worth it to have friends and family around.

Now, if my daughter would only have some kids so we can have more parties!
