Grandpa's Funnest Party

 Dad's birthday was a FUN one this year!

McKay surprised everyone at Sunday dinner by bringing out a bagpipe and playing it without anyone knowing that he had been learning the bagpipes for 5 years!  We were all shocked and surprised and laughed so hard at this secret!

We snuggled and enjoyed being together.

We laughed so hard at Dad being silly smiling for his picture of the yummy pistachio dessert that we affectionately call "McKay's dessert."

He was being super silly with his cheesy grins.

We played some games and the the uncles showed Maryn who's boss.

On Grandpa's actual birthday we did something that we had never done before... We went to a BYU basketball game all together!  Dad LOVED everything about it.  He loved the game and he loved doing it with ALL of his family.

We all pretty much had a GREAT time cheering together.  

Even Mom had fun at a ball game.  

(Can't remember the last time she willingly agreed to go to a ball game of any kind and I'm pretty sure she had FUN at this one.)

 

 Happy Birthday Dad!  You're the best dad I ever had!  You're the best man I ever knew!  You're the best Grandpa there ever was!  Thanks for being the leader of this great family!
