PARTY TIME

The main reason Ashley and I drove from Hybiscus Street to Beaverton was to attend Naomi's birthday party today. The party started at about 10:00 a.m. and ended around noon.

It was worth the trip.


Before the party guests arrived, Devon demonstrated his wall-climbing skills.




Silas and Devon had the task of moving the concrete-encased tether ball pole from the back yard to the front yard.
