There's a Party Goin' On

We finally found a weekend that worked for Nate's birthday party, so what if it was a month after his actual birthday!  He wanted to have a swimming party at the RAC (Rochester Athletic Club).  It was a lot of fun and I think that all of his friends enjoyed themselves as well.

 We went outside to swim for a little bit.  I heard the water was a little cold, but you got used to it.  I chose to be the photographer and had Nathan get in the water with Alina and Michael.



 Haley was sneaking up on Nathan to scare him when I took this picture.






 We spent most of the swimming time inside where it was warmer.  The RAC has this big orange dog that they pull out only for birthday parties.  I thought the boys would think they were too old for something like that, but it was a huge hit!

 Alina's latest "cheese" face.
 Hot tubbin!  From L-R: Eli, Oriam, Haley, Nate (don't know why he's pulling that face), Michael, and Joel.  Front: Andy, Jacob, David, and Sam.
 After swimming and changing, the boys went back to "The Neighborhood" and had cake with root beer and Sierra Mist.  They only allow store bought cakes in the RAC for birthday parties.  We love Sam's Club's frosting, so we always get our cakes there!

 Alina patiently waiting to have cake.  She would not take her eyes off of it!
 13 pink candles?  Nate chose the color pink.  I can't believe I have a 13 year old!
 "Caaaaaaaake!"

 She is just so gosh darn cute!
