Megan had an amazing sixth birthday! She got to invite friends to a pool party that the Moore's allowed us to have at their house. Since her birthday was actually on Labor Day (just like the day she was born!), we were able to have friends come and play. I was afraid it would be too cold to swim (it was cloudy in the morning with a high of 65 predicted!), but the sun came out and it was warm enough to swim for just long enough to enjoy the pool.
We had lots of friends there, and I was grateful for all the help from the other moms and especially from Travis (who was able to take part of the day off for the party).
It was a wonderful birthday, and I hope she remembers how she deserves all this fun and happiness!

Megan's 6th Birthday!Megan chose this "blue circle cake" to go with her Pirate Pool Party
Since there were boys invited, she didn't want them to feel uncomfortable with a girly cake. |

Megan just started jumping off the diving board this summer.
She's quite the little swimmer now, and so proud of it! |

We were all glad that Travis could join in the birthday party.

| The kids loved the idea that they could carry such a big guy around! |

Treasure Map for our puzzle treasure hunt.
Each step of the hunt had a game or task to be completed before the next clue was given.
With 15 kids aged 2 to 13, it was quite a fun group! |

 |
| There was a treasure chest at the end with little treasure boxes filled with goodies (telescope, gold coins, pirate patch, pirate earring, slide whistle, and a few pieces of candy). The box even had the name of the child on it. |

Megan and Rori have been best friends since they were 3 years old.
I don't think I've been friends with somebody for half my life... |
