Happy Birthday

My dad's 86th birthday was March 14 and my family wanted to get together for dinner at his favorite place, York Steak House. He didn't want to do that. He didn't want a big hoopla made over his birthday. So, Saturday night, my mother called and suggested we just have ice cream and cake for him at my house. He didn't want to do that either. I told my mom to tell him we are having ice cream and cake at my house on Sunday for Reinna,(14th birthday on March 17) Chasey, (13th birthday on March 18th), my great nephew, Tony (15th birthday on March 18th) and my niece, Carrie (25th birthday on March 20th). He was all for that. I ordered the cake, with all the names on it and of course, included his, Grandpa. He knew no different. My entire family met here at my house, with the exception of Carrie and her family (she already had other plans) and we had cake and ice cream and oodles of snacks and drinks. We had a great time, and so did my dad. Everyone was here at three and gone by 6. Just like my dad likes it. Here are some of the pictures.

What a very blessed day to have everyone together. I wish I could have been there since my birthday was in March also!!! I'm sure you don't remember when! I love the pictures. It looks like everyone had a great time. They always do at your house because it is so filled with the Grace of God and His Love is always shinning through. I love you and miss you bunches. Have a GREAT Day! - Donna
