So the weather had been beautiful and HOT all week long. We had water balloons, shaving cream, sprinklers, coolers of drinks, the tissue paper flower garland was strung, the music was playing...we were ready for a serious island party. The morning was sunny and the sky was blue. The party started at noon. We were all set up and ready to go...the guests started arriving and I kid you not - at 12:00 almost on the dot the thunder rolled! This picture was taken about 12:05 as the rain started falling and by 12:10 it was a monsoon and my tissue paper garland was a soggy mess on the ground! Not even all the guests were there yet. But here is our island princess still smiling. The girls ran around in the rain for a while and it cleared up just long enough to throw some waterballoons before it started again. Thank heavens I had Gilligan's Island on hand just in case since the party was supposed to go 3 hours and we had 10 girls coming! And of course by the time the party ended the sky cleared up and it didn't rain again the rest of the day! Murphy's Law in full force!
