More Birthdays!!

Before all the scary stormy weather rolled in {again} yesterday, we had a GORGEOUS Sunday evening.

A gorgeous evening to celebrate another milestone. Ryan's step-dad, Allen, turned 60! {Last year was the BIG year of 60th celebrations in both our families: my parents' 60th anniversary, Ryan's grandparents' 60th anniverary, and Ryan's mom and dad both turned 60, too!}And this year...Allen turned 60. We all gathered at their home to celebrate with a cookout!

Pork chops AND pulled pork...cheesy potatoes AND mac n cheese...and cake for dessert. We ate well!

I had the cutest little snuggle-muffin buddy for a while. God bless kids who need naps. They are great little snugglers.

Allen enjoyed his cards and gifts...and his mom even passed along some great copies of his baby pictures! So cool to see.

 And the kids had fun playing with toys while the party went on...

Of course there was cake and ice cream...and we sang to the birthday boy.

{I was in the back of the paparazzi there, so enjoy the view in the other cameras in front of me!}

A few photo opps with the birthday boy. The grandkids and the big kids:

We ended the evening watching our niece's beginning {mad!!} skills in softball:

We had a fun night, and it was a joy to celebrate Allen. I appreciate all he has invested in Ryan over the years to help make him the man he is today. Allen's a great second dad to him - and to me as well!
