The Never Ending Birthday Celebration (aka Birthday, Part 2)

The beach party (see below) was a huge success.  I highly recommend skipping the big party and doing something special that your kid will love with just a friend or two.  Birthday, Part 2 was a family affair.  Everyone came to Ojai to celebrate.  It was a great time.  Swimming, a trip to the water park, a day at the beach, lots of bbq-ing, and special gifts for the birthday boy.  Jackson got his dream gift.  He's been waiting months for the thing he's wanted most of all.  And his cousins, Auntie and Uncle delivered the goods -- a drum set.  The gift all parents dread.  Special thanks to Uncle Ed who put the drums together without any instructions and about 1000 pieces of hardware.  Jackson also got a new garbage truck that does things none of his other trucks can do.  GG and Grampy came through big time.  Then we all went to San Diego. Sea World and Legoland were on the itinerary.  Eliza rocked the entire trip.  All smiles all the time.  Jackson had a harder time off his schedule.

ONLY 3 weeks until Eliza's birthday.....counting down the days.
