Bounce House Bonanza

Next to Christmas, having a bounce house show up in our yard, is one of the more exciting things to happen every year.  The kids count down the days just like a holiday or birthday.  In a good year, this happens twice - once for Summer Solstice and once for Shawn's work party.  Since Summer Solstice didn't happen this year, this was the big event.  Since it is delivered in the morning and we have it for 24 hours, the kids have plenty of bouncing opportunities.  They all invited their friends over for what became a huge pre-party bounce bonanza.  I had so many kids here I lost track of them.  There were a lot of bright red faces and we handed out nearly all of the popsicles we had.  All in all, a big success in the eyes of the kids.

What do you mean, "Summer Solstice didn't happen this year"? Doesn't it happen every year?
