GGPa's 80th

I have been gone for awhile, sorry about that--but I am back and with a lot to talk about.
First up GGPa's big 80 birthday party. The day started out hard though (if you haven't seen Jenny's blog) Jon woke up to a beautifully Tahoe with no tires or rims. Not how you want to start your day.
Jenny and I took the girls to the party while the guys (Jon, Zayne and Kyle) took care of the wheel situation. It was a wonderful party--GGMa really out did herself on this one. The food was great and you could really tell that Grandpa really enjoyed himself and appreciated it all.
Our evening almost ended up the way the day began. Jenny told a very good story about the Tahoe situation; however, she left out how the night ended. Mom's neighborhood has this unexplainable rule about not having cars parked in the street after dark. Well, there was no where to park, so we were parked in the street--we weren't planning on staying over night so what was the harm. Well, Jon, Amanda, Jenny, Zayne and I were sitting in the living talking; Jon was a little uneasy about his truck so was checking outside almost every 10 minutes. Zayne got up once and he checked--he opened the door and started yelling out the door. At first we thought he was just messing with Jon, until he yelled again. Well Jon hurdled over Jenny, Amanda and I and then the 3 of us tripped over each other to get to the door. Jon's wheels were okay, but they were trying to tow our truck. So, after some foul language out of me (I have no idea where that came from) and $100 later our truck was "dropped". So Zayne then parked the truck in the front yard until we left--no where else to park.
So, we had an exciting weekend. Jenny posted some very nice pictures from the party--below are a few more. Thanks again GGMa for a WONDERFUL party--you did GREAT!!!

Well we will just leave it as foul--people can use their imagination, I am sure it might be more rated G then what happened.
