Victoria arrived home this morning at about 5:00 a.m., but I didn't even hear her. It is anyone's guess when she will wake up, but she announced that her party begins at 1:00. We'll see.
The Hello Kitty bounce house arrived at about 12:45. This was a wish that Victoria has had for awhile, and so we splurged for her grad party.
Jennifer was the first friend to arrive at our home. Jennifer lost her father earlier this year, so it has been a rough senior year for her, I'm sure. Throughout the afternoon, friends trickled through the house to the backyard party, where Foosballers foosed, bouncers bounced, food munched, and conversation buzzed. From what I could tell, Victoria was in her zone, and I was happy.
The atmosphere today was a surprise. There was a forest fire in the nearby Los Padres Forest, and we received the smokey affects from it. So the day went from brown to gray to yellow. It is hard to explain the eeriness we felt from the sun being blocked most of the day and the ashes that kept falling from the sky.
We tried to stay awake until everyone had left the party, but we only lasted until midnight. The last guest left at about 1:00 a.m. Thank you God for good, clean, celebrations!
