We celebrated Dad's 90th birthday Monday night! This picture above is us the morning after I got married. All our parents met us for a fancy breakfast and sent us off to the mountains of North Carolina for our honeymoon.
In attendance was Trish, my sister who lives here, her son Devin, my brother Paul and his wife and son Theresa and William and my sister Terri—via Zoom. That was Dad's first Zoom call and it made the party extra special.
This is my oldest son Graham and Dad. Dad had been admiring Graham's truck.
Left to right in this picture are Drew, Noah, Graham, Dad, Jonah and Devin.
And you know I had to take a picture like this with the Zoom folks. That's my brother Paul that you see on the screen, doesn't he look JUST LIKE Dad?? It was wonderful hearing all of their voices.
It was a fun night! We had a great dinner, a delicious cake for dessert and he was made to feel loved and dearly treasured. I need to be more intentional with this blog...I always forget about it and neglect it for months at a time. I will cherish having the memories to look back on! Happy birthday to my sweet Dad, the first man I ever loved and the one whom I looked for similar qualities of when I met my husband. I found those same traits in my husband, by the way, and I know that's something my dad is grateful for. He always says he loves that he never has to worry about me. Isn't that sweet?

ReplyDeleteWow, 90 years old is something to be commemorated with a great deal of pride. Being 90 is not an easy age to be. This is very beautiful.
