60th Surprise

We just got back from a trip to Atlanta to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday. We had been planning a surprise party for him for months and it went off without a hitch!

Francie was so good on the plane on the way down and back. She is a travelling pro these days. Of course, Dora on the iPad always helps. 

We got to Chase and Stephanie's house on Friday and had a great time with them. MFG loved putting on her makeup with Aunt Stephanie for the party.

Robin and Todd drove over from Birmingham Saturday morning. Mary Francis was so excited to see her cousins!

The party decorations were great!



My mom and dad arrived around lunchtime and Dad was shocked to see all of us there!





 We had a wonderful afternoon together as a family!

Papa, MFG and Anna

My sister made an awesome photo books with pictures from the past 60 years of my dad's life

My mom's 60th is in a few weeks, so we had to celebrate with her too! What good sports :)

Elizabeth wanted to try on the "60" glasses too!

The girls had a great time playing in Chase and Stephanie's backyard with the baby pool.

Aunt Stephanie had a great idea to cover the picnic table in shaving cream - it was a hit with the girls!

Uncle Chase helped to hose off the messy girls
  
No trip to Chase and Stephanie's house is complete without going to feed the goats nearby - MFG loved it!



Sweet cousin goodbye hugs

What a wonderful weekend! We loved seeing everyone and celebrating with you Dad! We love you and Happy Birthday!
