Julie & Gunnar's Birthday

Julie and Gunnar, who are two of my good friend Sarah's children and Y buddies of Elizabeth and Emily, recently had a small, informal birthday gathering that featured horses, slip and slide and an enormous tire swing.  I don't think that our girls have ever had so much fun in one afternoon!  They each got to go for a buggy ride with the horses (owned by a neighbor up the road) and the slip and slide gave them hours of fun.  It was a such a great afternoon of fun in the sun - so much so that when Emily crashed, she crashed very hard - "I want to go home NOW!"  Both girls were completely exhausted and slept almost twelve hours that night!

While Elizabeth and Julie went up to the neighbor's barn and traded Blessings for Treasure, Emily tried out the slip and slide.
Elizabeth loved Treasure!
