It's hard to believe my baby is now 8 years old! He wanted a pool party AND a sleep over, and being a total sucker right now, I complied. (Knowing that Sam and Kate's life is about to turn upside down with the move to Vegas, it's very difficult to say no right now!)
Our dear friends Beth and Doug Whorton agreed to let our boys swim at their house for Sam's birthday. Beth told me that one time, when Luke was younger, Bob and Adella Lunsford hosted Luke's birthday party in their arcade-like basement, so it was her turn to pay it forward. They went totally above and beyond with decorations and preparations, and Doug even jumped in with his clothes on, which was a big hit for Sam's friends from school. Sam had 3 friends: Reece, Dillon, and Max. I was a little worried about the group, but they got along great! My parents, Bob and Adella, and the Wilkersons joined us poolside to celebrate too.
Afterwards, we went home and let the boys sleepover in the basement. Stu was the late-night sentry, but they were asleep by about midnight (though they were pretty sure that they stayed up all night!) It was a sweet send-off.
