My dad retired in April of this year and I have to tell you, I can't think of a person more deserving. My dad has worked hard all of his life supporting his family. I can only think of a handful of times when he took a vacation day or stayed home sick, he just didn't. His and my mom's hard work provided all of us with a very strong family and a very happy childhood.
It's no secret that I am a daddy's girl and so when he retired I was a little worried if he could manage it, and after that fear subsided I wanted to plan a BIG surprise bash for him.
So the wheels started turning and this is what we came up with... (by the way I didn't get any photo's of the family but I know some of the kids did and I will try to hijack their photo's)
We had ... Yard games, food catered in, and watched a movie outside on the side of the house complete with concession's, and the notion to roast marshmallows and make s'mors, which we ran out of time before we could do that... (I had one upset boy because he couldn't have a camp fire.)
I love you so much dad. thank you for your many sacrifices and endless love and support.
Surprise!

We re-vamped his Patio (I wish I would have snapped a before pic)

Nothing says happy like a mouth full of chocolate.
