Can I blow out my own candles, please?

We had a surprise birthday party for our friend, Amy, on Saturday. I'm terrible at surprises, so it's no 'surprise' that between my big mouth and Hav's husband's tendency to 'skim' emails (sorry Tom) she kind of caught on to our little idea...but she was totally a good sport because she really acted surprised when she came through the door.

The kids had a blast, especially helping Ms.Amy blow out her birthday cake candles. Everyone had a good time, especially the kids who took a little dip in the hot tub. The kids, one by one, around 11:30pm crashed...Olivia being the first, then Samuel (due to the spoon full of Bendryl since we learned he must be allergic to our cat), then Abigal. The die hard party animals were Lex and Andrew who could have partied all night.
