It has been a busy, busy day! My uncle’s stepdaughter lives near him and takes such good care of him. She has been working for months on a birthday party for him and it was first class. My job was to make lemonade. I think I made about 10 gallons of lemonade last night.
These were all pictures of my uncle through the years. Isn’t that a cute idea?
I also thought this was super cute.
That cake! It was chocolate and peanut butter with chocolate dipped strawberries around it. My uncle loves chocolate and peanut butter so it was a great choice.
Here’s a picture of my uncle with Nicole and me.
It was such a great party, with so many of my uncle’s friends there. His aunt, who is almost 94 came from two hours away with her daughter who is my age and I haven’t seen in so long and I enjoyed visiting with them.
I’m so glad Nicole, Addie and I were able to be here for today.

Looks like a great time was had by all!!! It’s really nice when family can do something like that for the older generation. We never did that for dad, but he would have complained if we had….he was not one to draw attention to himself, and hated having a big deal made of anything. It’s nice, too, when the recipient is open to the party and can enjoy it. 🙂

My uncle loved it. I think he was a little concerned that people might not show up and said he had a hard time sleeping last night but there were more there than had said they were coming to he enjoyed every minute of it.
