Camp Half-Blood, Family Traditions, and the Joy of Celebrating Twins!
Epic 12th Birthday
Well, we did it — another epic birthday party in the books. The twins turned twelve this month, and honestly, we are just grateful every year that they still want Mom and Dad to host a cool party. We know those days are numbered. Fingers crossed.
We are big on birthdays around here and see them not just as a celebration but as a rite of passage and a way to connect with their friends, mark the moment, reflect on years past, and anticipate a beautiful future.
This year’s theme was Camp Half-Blood, inspired by a fictional summer camp for demigods and supernatural beings from the Percy Jackson fantasy series (think Greek gods in the 21st century).
The series follows the protagonist, Percy Jackson, a young demigod who must save the world.
We started with a quiz to determine each guest’s godly parent. In Greek mythology, demigods were born to a mortal and divine parent, so knowing your godly parent is essential.
