Mira turned 5 today. We had an awesome day at the beach for her party. In the morning, her uncle took her and her brother and cousins out fishing. Mira caught a baby shark! Xander caught a bluefish! We spent the rest of the morning playing out in the sound. Then we came in and had lunch and had some time indoors to rest up and get out of the sun for a while. In the afternoon we had one last marathon session out in the sound. Then for we had a birthday dinner made up of boiled shrimp, corn on the cob, baked beans, and bean dip. Then we had birthday cake and Mira opened the presents from this half of the family.
Mira had a wonderful birthday, and so Kate and I had a wonderful day too! Mira got to have her “birthday at the beach, with my cousins, and shrimp” that she’d been asking for since February. It was a wonderful day that will be long remembered!
