Sunday Celebration

On Sunday, we celebrated Jim's birthday (again) with our church family by a special pot-luck luncheon after the church service. We were so happy that our family here could be at the service and also join in the celebration. Of course, the best gift to Grandpa was his grandchildren! 
 Several little girls at church also enjoyed our little Em!
 A special thanks to all the women who organized and served the luncheon, plus the ice cream sundae bar (Jim's favorite!) after the meal.
 This little buddy loved practicing his climbing skills on the stairs.
 Every one of the kids took a turn in the rocking chair-the same one that their grandma sat in as a little girl!
 K found her uncle's big shoes...
 And B enjoyed playing with his uncle again.
 This is such a fun age of imagination! J loved playing with the wooden toys that his great, great grandfather made over 35 years ago. (I love how he now has names for all the vehicles when we play cars and trucks!)
 More daddy time...
 time for a musical interlude...
 then on to helping Grandpa open cards and gifts!
Mommy and little boy even had a short nap!  We had such an enjoyable day with family and friends. We are so BLESSED!
