CASTLE CLUB BEACH PARTY

So, there's no sand and no water, but it's a beach party? Yes. Because you wear leis. The kids did not comprehend, but the promise of bouncy houses sealed the deal (or maybe it was just that they love coming "to work" with mommy and daddy) and they agreed to attend. They have such busy schedules you know.

The dunk tank was a HUGE hit with them. Cora, our previous heavy hitter, struck out. But James, the kiddo who never used to come close to scoring direct hits in these types of hand-eye coordination games, knocked that castle multiple times. The only problem was that he wasn't quite strong enough to hit it hard enough to dump the guy into the water. No worries though, the assistant gave it a good push and sent him tumbling each time! The look on James' face was priceless - such joy!

Watching the adults hog the ball ;-)
Enjoying the giant fan (the hangar where the beach party took place - since we got rained out by the threat of thunderstorms - was like a sauna)
 Bouncy house fun (lots of buddies were there - kids of our friends and coworkers - but our dynamic duo stuck together like glue most of the night, as usual)
 Attempting to cool the kids off (and calm them down) with snow cones in front of the fan (shortly after this they literally melted down and we called it an early night)
