we celebrated my dad's birthday yesterday. he turned 67. he and my mom came over for cake and ice cream after dinner.
of course, we greeted him with a cup of coffee first, along with a birthday hat for him to wear.
of course, we greeted him with a cup of coffee first, along with a birthday hat for him to wear.
so we all put on our birthday hats too. except jacob who was afraid of them because he got snapped with the strap when my mom tried to put it on him.
dad sat at the table and began to tell us some story.
it was getting really intense until......
he laughed at his own punch line.
i guess rachel and olivia thought it was funny
and so did jacob, who finally decided that he would give the hat one more try
josiah was only interested in eating his cake as quickly as he could and a fork was not doing the trick
we had fun!
happy birthday dad!

Friends from childhood are the best...they usually mean the most to us and stick with you through the good and the bad!
Anyway, lovely post! Your family is just beautiful...your dad's smile just lit up my own face. So glad that Jacob finally came around to wearing the birthday hat and that the scare from the rubberband slap didn't due permanent psychological damage! Ha ha!
Take care,
Val
What a neat post. I smiled all the way through it! Your dad looks fantastic for 67. Seriously!
Your little guy gets me every time. He is so precious. Love him in the shirt and diaper. :) And that picture of Josiah enjoying his cake? Mmm hmmm, I can so relate. hahaha.
Christy,
Please pass along birthday blessings to your 67 years young dad! I want to thank you for sharing this time with all of us and it truly looks like you all had an amazing time.

It looks like everyone enjoyed themselves. My dad just turned 80! Wow, I feel so blessed to have him with us still, and that my little girl has the chance to her granddad. I never got to meet either of my grandfathers, and they had already passed before I was born, and I feel like really I missed out!
I love little Jacobs curly locks, by the way!
A very happy birthday to your dad! Your pictures are great.
Please tell your Dad Happy Birthday! Looks like you guys had a great time.
until next time... nel
What a sweet family! Happy Late Birthday to your Dad. It looks like his day was super special. I had to laugh out loud at the punch line picture. too cute. Jacob's hair is so adorable.
Happy Birthday to your Dad! I feel like cake now :)
Oh, this is so precious!!! And, I LOVE that your daddy laughed at his own punch line! Priceless!

So great to have our daddies around. I was just with mine this week, along with my mother, and he's always got a story to tell. And I am always ready to listen!
Blessed weekend to you and your family, friend.

Happy Birthday Fred! Looks like you had a good one! Where's Amanda?
Sandra--I don't remember but he thought it was really funny! :)
Angie--She was there but all of the pics that she was in did not turn out. They were all too blurry.
Happy Birthday to your dad!
Great pictures!

Oh & thanks for the tip on eating cake faster ;)
What fun!!!
It looks like he enjoyed every minute of it!! So glad you all got to celebrate and enjoy each other!
Nothing worse than getting snapped by a birthday hat. Good to see that cutie was brave and tried the hat again.
Happy Birthday to your dad.
