Happy birthday Dad!

Dad's birthday was celebrated...perhaps not in the usual fashion, since Mom was out-of-town and unable to host the festivities, but Julie and I were determined to make sure Dad knew he was loved and celebrated on his big day.

And really, what says love, like a dinner date at Gringos?

Ryleigh going to town on the chips and queso...

...singing and clapping...

...Dad turning beet red...Ryleigh starring as if they were crazy...

...and Wesley laughing along.

There were cards and presents to open, butterscotch pie to eat, and lots of smiles and laughter. It might not have been traditional, but it sure was fun.

Happy birthday, Dad! We love you and are so blessed to have you in our lives!
