Earlier this evening, Merrit was invited out on a big boat for a ride around Lake Washington with his friend Aidan and five other kids. Today is Aidan's birthday! The boat ride on the grandparents' Bayliner was followed by a surprise birthday party on shore with food, a pinata, and cupcakes. When the kids all got off the boat at 5:00ish, the party guests were waiting on the dock to wish Aidan a happy birthday!

| The birthday boy and his friends disembark. |
 |
| We all squated down behind the wall to surprise Aidan. |
 |
| Aidan went around giving everyone hugs. Here's mine. |
 |
The decorations for the party were perfect for Aidan, who loves all kinds of
African animals. His collection of realistic-looking stuffed animals were all
perched in various trees. I spotted lions, leopards, snakes, and a giraffe. |
 |
| Cupcakes!!! |
 |
| Aidan and Merrit are great friends. Two peas in a pod, really. |
 |
| The nearby park was a big hit with all the kids. |
 |
| Dinner is served. Burgers, dogs, green salad, all kinds of fruit, and chips. |
 |
| Balloons. Love these! |
 |
| The kids took whacks at a pinata. Here's Merrit's turn. |
 |
| When the pinata finally cracked open, there was a mad dash for candy! |
