I couldn't let the Ides of March (3/15) pass without making note of my father's 80th Birthday! I told him I looked for a card that said "Happy 50th!....because if you are 50, that makes me 23!" Alas, no luck finding that card, but he was happy with the Panara card we did get him!
We took the short drive to his house yesterday and helped with disposing of the cake, but not till after watching our family's favorite team, Duke, win the ACC Tournament! Thanks to Coach K and the guys for giving my daddy such a great present! Five years ago we surprised him with this cake, but this year it was kind of hard to pull the same trick! The pic was from his college days at Duke in the 50's......
And here he is today, handsome as ever! He still has the little cross stitch I did for him when I was a Duke student 30 years ago! (and you thought this wouldn't be a post with stitching in it!) LOL!
Happy belated Birthday to your Dad. Sounds like you had a great time visiting with him. Love the cake you had done for him five years ago. What a great idea!
