Pics From Dad's Birthday

It's taken awhile but I finally got the pics from my Dad's 80th birthday party at the Outback Steakhouse. My Dad is not one who is usually surprised because he tends to be a little controlling and usually is on top of everything. But even he had to admit we got him and we got him good. He thought he was going out for dinner with my Mom and my brother Henry for his birthday but little did he know that all of the immediate family was going to be there too. It's been a month and he is still talking about it. I wish we could have captured the look on his face when he realized what the heck was going on. Enjoy!

Kendal is pointing at her favorite Auntie. That's my nephew Jason in the center.

Kendal...love those blue eyes



Show us your french fries...


The caption under this pic should be "Typical"...my brother Dave enjoying his favorite beverage.

So there you have it. Plans are in the works for my Mom's 80th birthday in April but we have already been warned to skip the surprise party. We won't get away with that anyway...she's not having that. It may not be a surprise but one way or the other, we are going to celebrate. You only turn 80 once.

Looks like a great family party. I'm glad your dad enjoyed it after he got there and found out it was a surprise birthday party for him. :)

Looking forward to pics of your mom's 80th birthday party come April.
