Birthday Part II: People, Cake, Pool, & Presents

the people.

If you build it. . . they will come. Saturday afternoons aren't the usual gathering time for our quite large extended family, but since Father's Day was the next day and the out-of-towners were having a party EVERYBODY showed up for some shade-lounging, baby pool party, hamburger cookin', birthday and father's day present openin' fun. And obviously, as you will see below it was as a BYOBC (bring your own bag chair) party.
