Jeff's birthday bash

At one time my sister in law, Amy, and I had grand visions of a full on birthday bash for Jeff. He turned the big 7-0 and we really wanted to do something fun with lots of friends and family. But somehow Jeff caught wind of these grand plans and nixed them. He said (in a very firm voice) "I appreciate what you want to do, but don't. I don't want a big party with friends. "

Some would have been discouraged by that. But I just heard- don't invite my friends...he didn't say anything about family!

So Amy and pulled together a family dinner at the acreage for his birthday. KC, Kim, Sheila, Steve, Kelly, Ed and girls were all in attendance as well as our families. It was a lovely evening. I absolutely love getting the Kelly family together. They are a great bunch of people. And celebrating a wonderful man was awesome too!

The cousins ran around, played with water balloons and jumped on the trampoline. Evie tagged along the whole time. And it definitely tuckered her out. She was asleep before we hit city limits and slept in until 10 the next morning. She sure is a cutie!
