Happy Birthday, Joel!

Sarabeth succeeded in planning a surprise birthday party for Joel at our house!

She said the key to pulling off the surprise was having it a month after his actual birthday--he had no clue! :)

How fun to celebrate this good friend of ours. Anna and Spice brought cherry pie...

...and their son, Ezra. The three of these kids had a LOT of fun together.

Robert represented his newly grown family--Megan and baby Josh stayed home, having successfully survived the first week of life together. Robert's sister and brother-in-law came also with their lovely English accents and across-the-sea perspectives. I seriously could've talked to Helen all day. :)

The pie was delectable. Frisbee was played. Kids were pushed in swings. Root beer was flowing. The sun shone down on us...

...a great day. And then, some diehards stayed for dinner and games! SO FUN to be part of their lives. Happy BirthMonth, Joel! We love you!
