What I couldn’t mention in my Happy Birthday Post to Casey was that I planned a surprise party for him on his birthday!   It was actually the most fun and biggest stressor of my summer so far, but it went off without a hitch.  

First I told him to be home mid-afternoon, because the boys and I had a surprise for his birthday.   We took him to the docks downtown, and hopped on a sailboat for a two  hour cruise.   I had him mostly convinced that the sail was the big surprise…

After we docked I “suggested” that we head over to a local pizza joint for dinner.   It was, of course, where 38 friends and family were waiting to celebrate with us!   (The picture at the top of the post  is of Kenny, Cooper and their cousins hiding under the buffet table towards the end of the night.)   It was fun, the food was great and I think Casey was fairly surprised.     Happy Birthday, Baby!!
