Polo Burning Party!!!

It's finally arrived.
After Zach, I'm a big fan of him (he is one of our friends) and Andrey worked so hard to get the backyard looking nice enough for a party, it happened! Bailee and her group of friends came and we had the best time. We had the barbecue going, roasting and grilling hotdogs, roasting marshmellows and "Starburst," playing volleyball (until the neighbor got angry with having to keep throwing the ball back to us repeatedly), we had water fights and swam, and when it got dark, all the kids got their cell phones out (It's crazy that every kid has one now. I didn't get one till I was in college, and my boyfriend got it for me...lol) and listened to music that they liked.
We had a fun time visiting.
The funniest part was when the fire got big enough and all the kids brought out their backpacks and started throwing their homework into the fire. They were burning all their assignments and projects they had worked so hard on (yeah, right) all year. Then they brought out their uniforms they had to wear at school-the imfamous "POLO SHIRTS." They started ripping them up into shreds as they told things they hated about the school, teachers, assignments, etc. and then threw them into the fire. We had the funnest time taking pictures of this new tradition.
What a fun night.
Happy Graduation, Bailee. I can't believe she is going into High School next year!
