My Dad turned 65 this year. My Mom wanted to throw him a big party so she started planning it months in advance. She invited all of his friends from high school and college plus our family. We offered our house for the festivities and everyone had something to do to get ready. I made the shirts for all of the grand kids. We wanted my Mom to jump out of a cake but she wouldn't. Boo! We borrowed tables and chairs from some friends. We ended up zip walling in the deck out back and renting a heater to keep it warm. It turned out perfect with just enough room. Warm enough to be warm but cool enough to not die with lots of people in one place. My Mom made a pork roast dinner and we had cheesecake for dessert. My Dad's friends kept the stories clean. Darci made an awesome slide show with pics of my Dad from baby through now. And most importantly, my Dad had a great time. He smiled and laughed (really loud) the whole night. Happy Bday Dad!
