Cameron's birthday was this weekend, and as we do every year, we went up to La Quinta to her desert house to celebrate. This year we arrived on Friday afternoon, and it was 115 degrees. When we arrived the first thing we did was turn on the air conditioning, then left, went to the store, then spent hours near the pool trying to cool off. Unfortunately, when we expected the house to be cool that evening, the air conditions was still spewing hot air. So while the technician came out to service the unit, we decided to go out and find a bar where there might be some cold air.

After quite a but of driivng around (we were trying to get the cold air going) we finally stopped at a bar named McCormick's. There was a live band playing music and we had a blast dancing in the midst of all the fans. We also took the opportunity to start taking pictures.

We got home as late as possible so that we were drained, seeing as the house was practically warmer than it was outside. (yes, hard to imagine). The next morning, sure enough, we woke up to a somewhat 'cooled down' house. Obviously this just got us even more excited about spending the day at the pool in the water.

We spent the entire afternoon relaxing and then finally, our minds and creativity got the best of us. Who knew that we would turn in to stunt devils??
Saturday night, after spending the entire day by the pool, we went out for a formal dinner for Cameron's birthday.

Quickly, at the beginning of the meal I took the waiter to the side and told him that it was Cameron's birthday. At the end of the meal, server's came round and put the sombrero on Cameron's head and sang to her!
And we all got to share her brithday flan :-)
