Our Folk Community Celebrates a Triple Birthday


Yes we have three children that have birthday's within weeks of each other. So we as a group decided to have a birthday blowout.


The kids? Hakon 10, Jesse 10, and Magnus 8.


We parents of the three children decided to have a party at JJ Jump. Jesse's Mom, Tammy, got a good deal on the party, so we thought that the party would be the kids' present. It worked out really well and had everyone in our community plus a couple more attend. Here are pictures from our Birthday Blowout!




As you can see it was a blast for the kids. All of them asked to do it again for the next set of birthdays. Although not "traditional", it was a blast. It built comradeship among our children and friends. A couple of the families we had not seen in many months due to illness and schedule conflicts. It was great to see our friends again. It reminds of this Havamal verse:

34. Long is the road to a false friend leading, e'en if he dwell on the way: but though far off fared, to a faithful friend straight are the roads and short.

Although the distance between our homes is long, the path is straight and short :).

Hail Acorn Hollow, Folk Building the Future!
