Roy's birthday this year was not just on his birthday day put we spent the whole week celebrating 80 years. We started off with a trip to Fish Lake with the Damron's on a pontoon boat and we fished the day a way. The fishing was great and we are so happy for catch and release, or we would still be eating fish 3 times a day. We had a special time with Tage Carroll ( Ivy and Barts son) on the boat with us, cause he caught his first fish and as you can see in the pictures below he was not very happy when he had to hold it up for a picture.
Next Dorothy Higgins (Friend) with the help of Claire ( Daughter) and all our childern. She had made a DVD of pictures of Roy over the years. What fun it was to watch and reminisce.
Saturday will be the day to remember, our 3 childern and most of their families came and spent the day with us. It started in the early afternoon out on the back lawn with cold cuts and fruit, and the cake that Roy won from the radio station. All the grandkids ate birthday cake and had ice cream cones. Ran all over the yard. Then at 6:30 pm all the adult went to dinner at Steve's Steak House.
What a wonderfull time we had. Thanks to those who traveled.

HEY, YOUR BLOG IS SO CUTE WITH ALL THE NEW PICTURES ON THERE. THAT WAS SUCH A FUN DAY !!!!! THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!! LOVE YOU DAD AND MOM
I'm glad you all had fun, wish we could have been there! Looking at the pictures of the kids playing in the backyard sure reminded me of when I was a kid and all of us grandkids were there doing the same. It really made me homesick... and brought back many wonderful memories! Thank you Grandpa for all the fishing trips and all the times spent just puttering around in the back yard. Those memories are my favorite and I will remember them always... I love you both and hope to see you soon :) Tiger
