It's our birthday :)
12 October 2014 | Tranquility, Silverstrand

As we happily settled back into our little red rental house back on the beach in Silverstrand, CA, it called for a beach party to be held quickly!
October 12th, Stephen's and my birthday, fell on a Sunday this year and the weather was perfect, so we invited a small group of those we love so dearly and had a fabulous day.
Thank you to all of you for coming from near and far... you know who you are!
I missed Stephen and Candace in Texas, and Christopher and Allison in Indiana, and Dillon in Nicaragua, and my sister in Folsom, CA, like crazy, of course, but the surprise live music that Trevor and Star had arranged did a lot to fill the void!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Happy birthday my boy - I love you so so so much xxx
Stephen is 28, I am 54, and if his grandpa Louis was still alive he would've been 87 today - cheers Dad x
And on a "proud mom" note: Ste is learning Formation flying in the T6 on the Airforce base at the moment - scares the willies out of me as I think of these young men flying 10 feet apart from each other while doing arobatics!! Here is a link to a video that accuratley depicts what he's up to for those of you who may be interested!

There are some things a mom shouldn't know... but I want to know every detail, and so I pray consistently, every day!
PS The picture of Ste was taken by Candace... I love it!
