Dad's 60th B-day/Retirement Party!

We threw Papa a surprise 60th birthday/retirement party and it was a blast! He was totally surprised - which was a miracle - and we had a great turn out too! We got as many photos as we could before the battery on my camera went dead - ugh!

Here he is opening some of his gifts with help from Madison.
Lida, Diana, Mark and Marnie.
Granny (Cheryl) and Aidan taking a break from handing the presents over to Maddie and Papa.
Aidan took it upon himself to try on Papa's golf hat - too cute!

Aidan and Papa hanging out a bit.


Aidan thought he was being sneaky - taking some yellow beans off the porch and devouring them!

Madison and Papa had a quick game of balloon volleyball.
Cousins Evan and Laura.

Even Hobbs made it to the party!
Here comes the man of the hour!

Madison presented Papa with his 60 year old lawn sign that sat by the side of the road all day long - he he!



Marnie, Maddie and I had a great time decorating/setting up the yard! Aidan was napping and Dan was on Aidan duty :).

One of his gifts from Cheryl - Richie Racer - doesn't that take ya back?!
Surprise!

We love you Dad - this party was a small way of showing you just how special you are to us!!!
