We threw a big party for Jim’s 50th and Justin’s 25th birthdays. I guess I was a little ore occupied with being a good hostess than being a good photographer because I didn’t manage to get a picture of the birthday boys together. It was a great part nonetheless. The weather started out looking iffy so Justin & Sarah rented a tent and Jim set up a tarp outside the patio door but it remained dry albeit a bit on the chilly side (so we had a bonfire too). A lot of the neighbors came, along with all our family who were in town – it ended up being great practice for upcoming wedding events (and the first time we met Sarah’s mom)
