Non-Adventure # 37 Everybody say Surprise!

My friend Ben's birthday is in August and his sweet wife and my good friend Leah decided she was going to throw a surprise birthday party for him at the marina in Grapevine on a party boat!! So she had us all meet at the marina 30-40 minutes before they were supposed to "arrive". We all gathered there on the boat waiting for them to show up. If you look close you can see them walking up the dock.

I fully admit the pictures end here. Our party boat guys docked us out in the lake and one of them started cooking the hot dogs, yes they cooked and yes the boat had a grill as well as a slide! After everyone grabbed a hot dog and their favorite chips and beverage choice and chowed down most of us got off the boat. We grabbed some life vest and headed into the water to float our afternoon away. After the heat of the summer we had been experiencing the water felt great. We all sang Ben Happy Birthday from in the water. At some point most of us climbed back onto the boat to grab ourselves some cookie cake. Finally the party boat guys herded us back onto the boat and drove us back in. We all mostly sat on the upper deck getting some rays and drying off in the sun. It was soooo much fun, just hanging out and partying wih friends.

Happy Birthday Ben and welcome to 30!
