Happy 70th Birthday Grandpa!!!

Yesterday was Al's birthday and we had a really fun celebration at Stephanie and Bobby's home. Janice told me earlier that he did not even realize that it was his birthday until she told him. He was even more surprised to find all his children and grandchildren had gathered to surprise him and celebrate! It was a really fun afternoon full of lots of visiting and catching up. We really enjoy getting together and having fun. The above picture is all the grandchildren with their Grandpa. Christopher is the only one missing. It was really hard just to gather them all up from various corners of the house. We actually took a few pictures and then realized that Emma, Abigail and Amy were missing!
Grandpa had help blowing out the candles. We did not put 70 candles on the cake because it was a white cake, not a wax cake :)
Jenni and her Grandma visiting in the above picture.
Tara and her boyfriend, Austin. Yeah...we like him.
Jenni and Bobby "hangin' loose". Bobby thinks he is a teenager :)
This is my nephew Calvin. His mom, Stephanie, cut him this huge piece of cake to entice him to finish his meal. She even placed it right in front of him to tempt him. It was pretty funny.
This is Josh with his new glasses! I keep forgetting to take a picture and finally remembered at the birthday party. I think he looks pretty good!
Jenni and Tyson have a staring contest. Tyson won.
All the men downstairs in the family room watching sports and playing the Wii after filling their tummies.
