Happy Birthday, Dad

Over the weekend, we all headed to Houston for my dad’s 60th birthday party (Today is his actual birthday, though—Happy birthday, Dad!). The four kids hosted a party for him at his favorite barbecue restaurant: The Tin Roof. We had a great time. Good food. Good fellowship. Good fun. Elizabeth, Barrett, and Shaelyn sang him a revised tune to his favorite song (“This is the day that the Lord has made”):

This is the Day; this is the day.
That Teddy was born. That Teddy was born.
We are so glad; we are so glad.
‘Cuz he’s our granddad; ‘cuz he’s our granddad!

He loved it! Here are some pics from the event.

We made Dad a bulletin board of all these pictures. There were some really funny ones of when my parents were dating. What outfits they wore. In one of them here, Dad is in a purle suit!
