Kirk's 60th birthday was on Saturday, June 25th, so we had a "The Best is Yet to Come" party in our backyard.Heather & Jeff picked up all of the food at Lucille's BBQ, yum!
Philip & Abby came early.Philip made a fire for later & Abby decorated the tables.
The Birthday Boy & Wife
Abby did a great job decorating the tables with pictures, momentos, etc.
The Birthday Boy with his wonderful kids!!
We had BBQ chicken, St. Louis ribs & mouth-watering tri-tipwith all of the trimmings.
Family & Bob Taylor (like family!)
Friends from Kirk's men's small group Bible study/accountability group.
Some friends from our Sojourner Sunday School class
The Webers & our Kids
Abby passed out the sorbets while Heather cleaned off the tables.They were such a great help!
Jerry, Kirk's dad, (age 90 & 1/2) spoke. His talk was so sweet, funny & spiritual.He did a great job!
Kirk opened his presents and made us all laugh with his added linesto the cards & funny comments.
Kirk loves M&M's!
Several people sat near the fire and chatted after the party officially ended.
So funny, that Kirk & Bob wore the same shirt!(Bob was the best man in our wedding)
Our welcome plate
At the beginning, we played the guessing game where we put an invention, event or famous person's name from the last 60 years on a slip of paper on each person's back. (Mom did a great job passing these out). We had to ask yes & no questions and guess our word. You can see Jose's slip on his back still.
The Birthday Boy chatting with friends.He had such a great time. :-)
