Daddy's 60th Surprise! Party

My first blog has to be about my Dad's 60th party. My Mom asked all of us kids to pull something together and surprise my Dad. It was so much fun and we all spent many hours in front of our computer screens coming up with fun ideas for the 50's theme we picked out. The invites were Awesome (thanks Ryan and Tiff) and I think they raised expectations for the party to be really great. Well you tell me from the photos but, I think we delivered. My Aunt and Uncle came up from Nevada and helped pull off the surprise. Dad didn't even suspect when he walked into the church. So many friends and family came he even had a friend from childhood (Juliano) send him some pictures of the good ol' days and a Happy Birthday message. Mom put together a Shadow Box of some of his Vietnam memories and we had it on display. I think the best part of the night though was the skits that the kids and grandkids put on. We found out Sam is a born actor. The Skits were just a few memories that we thought should be acted out. Dad as a kid throwing cats of the barn roof, Mom and Dad's 1st kiss, Dad signing up for Vietnam, and the Famous Head Family Christmas bush story. It was a fun night and thank you to everyone who helped put it together. We'll be talking about it forever.
