Beautiful Imperfection

On Labor Day weekend we had our kids' annual birthday party bash, with friends and family included.  Each year it takes place outside in our garden and every year everyone is amazed at the good weather that falls upon us.

Well....not this year.  It poured heavy rain all day.  Interestingly, it was the best get-together we've ever had.  We were all still outside, but crammed on the front porch (luckily it's pretty big).  I guess the closeness forced more discussion and laughter.  The imperfect weather made it such a beautiful day.
