Birthday Party

Tonight some of our family got together at Mom and Dads house for a big birthday bash. We celebrated 5 birthdays!; Dad is 84; my brother Brian is 48, my sister Debera is turning 61? and my nephew, Shawn is 37. I'm 58 now! Yikes!! That sounds like a big number.

These first pictures need a little explanation. When I was a very little girl I wore a Davy Crockett hat for play. Well, tonight I was presented with a Davy Crockett hat, along with some genealogy to prove I am related to him! Apparently this is a new discovery that mom made.

Some of the fellows were good sports and took turns wearing it.

My birthday is being kind of spread out, since I have a son and daughter that went to the 'Stadium of Fire' show tonight in Provo. My sons company sponsored the show and gave their employees and guests the tickets for free. If they had paid it would have cost $130. each.

So, on Sunday we get to have a nice dinner together and then on Monday we may do a picnic and some hiking and fishing. We just renewed our fishing licenses this morning.

Happy Birthday all of you June and July people.

Thanks Mom and Dad for the party.
