A Birthday Party!

I had a bit of a ruff night sleeping as the back was still bothering me.  I slept on heating pads most of the night.  I knew i had a busy day ahead of me so i took some more pain meds and got my day started.  The grands were up by 7.30 AM and our day was started.  The wind blew a bit but It warmed up and ended up being a beautiful day.

We had a surprise 50th birthday party for hubby.  The grands kept Papa busy so Gram could get things going before everyone showed up.  Thanks Toby and Hailey you did a excellent job keeping Papa away.

We spent the rest of the evening resting from a very busy, tiring and wonderful weekend.  It is so good to be back home with our family and friends.
