Happy Birthday Dad!

Yesterday was my Dad's 60th Birthday! He took the day off work, and Jon was able to take the afternoon off. It was a fun day! Dad and I went for a run and then out to breakfast. Then, after lunch, we headed down to my parent's lake house. The plan was water skiing ... but it was COLD yesterday, so we opted for a short boat ride, and then alternated between the porch and the warm living room with a fire in the fire place. 2 sets of aunts and uncles joined us for dinner to celebrate.

At first Sarah wasn't crazy about her life jacket, but she liked the breeze in her face. Hopefully she'll keep enjoying boat rides so we can get lots of skiing in this summer! The wind blowing her hair was so funny!!
My cousins (Chris and Susan) and aunt and uncle (Nancy and HughO) are building houses just up the river from us, so we took the boat up to check out the progress. Chris and Susan's is on the left and Nancy and HughO's is on the right.
Happy Birthday Dad! We love you and are so thankful for you!!! And you sure are a young 60! :) Thanks for being such a great dad, dad-in-law, and pops!
