Julian's Second Birthday!

Julian had quite an adventurous birthday party! Not only were there tornado warnings, but we lost power for a while and got to play with flashlights in the basement! Then we had cake and presents and Bill spent so much time tossing Poplar in the air that he wore himself out and was asleep by 8pm. All in all it was a great day!

Best way to spend your birthday? Launching rockets from the back deck!

The young light-bearers led the way to safety when the lights went out. Nothing like a little evacuation adventure to spice up a birthday party!

And when the power came back on, cake time!

Uh-oh, more adventure involving a very high ceiling fan, a balloon and its string, and Auntie MyMy with a large stick covered in blue tape!

Full success!
