Happy Birthday to Vee....

Then earlier...in July....we had Vee's birthday...it was an outdoor pool party (hence, all the bathing suits) .

As you can see in the background of the 2nd picture (right), we set up the tent for the 15 girls to spend the night, but they chickened out and slept inside...maybe it was the bones that Jazmin brought back from deep in the woods behind our house that caused them to change their minds...hmmmm......

Here's Chip setting up the torches to keep the mosquitos away.

As the evening wore on, the girls got crazier and crazier...someone decided to get creative by rubbing their fingers along the wicks of the torches and, well...the pictures speak for themselves...
