God truly gifted me with an amazing Dad. He taught us the value of hard work, the importance of family, the joy of fun and laughter and most importantly, the love of our heavenly Father. The older I get, the more I realize that I have been, and still am so blessed to have him in my life! He is loved by so many people - he even got a birthday card and a gift certificate from 3 little girls he see regularly in his local McDonalds.
We were able to gather with almost the whole family at a local restaurant. (One grandson-to-be had to work, and Andy and Nikki are in Kentucky.)
We had such a nice evening, with the usual laughter and teasing that happens when we all are together. I know Dad enjoyed it.

Happy Birthday to your sweet Daddy, Mari! And I noticed you and your sisters have sort of matching names.:) I am blessed to have two sisters as well!
Such sweet pictures, Mari. So happy you all were able to be together (except for the missing).
That Ruby? Now, she cracks me up! She's sure got spunk; kind of reminds me Jase. :)

Happy Birthday to your Dad! He looks great and I enjoyed the photos of family. Have a great week.
What a wonderful blessing!! Your dad looks great and I know he had to love being with his four kids and those two little doll babies! Thanks for sharing your evening with us, Mari.

Nothing beats a good time with family. These pictures are wonderful. Cherish every birthday your dad has!!
Happy Birthday to your father! That was a wonderful party you had for him. Shaelyn's painting was lovely!
Ha ha you cracked me up about what you said about Ruby. She's going to be a handful when she gets older! Love the kids matching denim jackets. And Happy Birthday to your Dad, he looks for his age.
Ruby does have that mischievous glint in her eye, doesn't she? :) So nice that you could all gather to celebrate your dad's birthday. I'm sure that having the family together made his day.
All nice pictures - it was a fun time. He sure is a good Dad and Grandpa. And Ruby definitely got her mischievous glint from him I think!
Awwww, happy birthday to your sweet dad. What a wonderful milestone. May he have many more happy years. xoxo
