Party for my parent's today
Went very well. I have blisters on both feet and I'm so tired I can barely sit up, but. . . . . it was so nice.
This is my parents, my sister, me and my brother.

My dad any his great grandson Zach- they put Zach in the church's wheelchair to try to contain him for a while. He was thrilled to have chair like GreatGrandpa's!
My oldest son is wheeling him around.

Many thanks to Lori (aka captnclearance) for the sub sandwiches and the memory card for my camera - so I could share them with you here.

I'm so glad it went well, Sunshine! You put a lot of yourself into this party (planning as well as running it today), and I'm glad your parents and their family and friends were able to enjoy it. You're an
for doing something so special for them.

What a great day! I am so glad it went well. Looks like Zach is enjoying himself.
Thanks Lori for helping Denise make such a special day for her folks.
Go soak your feet Denise, and get some rest. Your parents are blessed with such a wonderful daughter.
