Berkeley's Birthday
Berkeley officially turned three today. And even though he has already had one birthday party, he basically had another one today (and he'll have a third on Sunday). Berkeley made this observation for himself this morning, after having opened a gift he received from Grandma and Grandpa:

"This is my second birthday Grandma.", Berkeley flatly stated.

In the morning we met Jess/Rees and Jen/Ky/Taylor/Ryan/Heather at the Murray City outdoor pool. The main pool area is very kid friendly; it gradually slopes from the pool edges to a maximum depth of about 3 feet. But the main attraction, at least for our kids, was the open-air water slide that descends down about 50-ft of winding curves. We were at the pool about 2½ hours and probably spent 2 of those hours on the slide... Berkeley and Eliana just couldn't get enough. It was loads of fun.

After an afternoon nap, we spent the evening and a nice dinner over at the Dave/Heather Barnes home. Dave and Heather's eldest son, Braxton, shares a birthday with Berkeley (Braxton turned 7 today). The kids took their turns hitting a piñata and playing on an inflatable slide and inflatable obstacle course (rented for an earlier party Braxton had with his neighborhood friends). After a gift exchange between Berkeley and Braxton, we sang for Berkeley and he blew out some candles on a cake.
