Turning 60 makes for a lot of candles on the cake. So Dad had to huff and puff to blow them out.

We celebrated his birthday at my house this weekend with brunch, and a coffee cake with candles. All my brothers were able to attend, minus Allyson and Jordyn as they just got home from the hospital, and Blake was trying to cough up a lung all weekend. So they stayed safely at home.

This meant a full house for us (seven extra people on Friday night) but lots of laughs, and of course, storytelling.

For Dad's birthday our present was to make him cry, but in a good way. We all contributed to a scrapbook for him that I put together, with pictures and stories. He made it about 5 pages in and had to the leave the room. He's such a softie! Hopefully he'll be able to make it all the way through the book by the time he turns 65!
