The Birthday Boy
Earlier this week – well, Monday to be specific – we celebrated my dad’s birthday out at my older brother’s house.
My youngest nephew. Colin, made ribs — and, oddly enough I didn’t take many/any pictures of the deliciousness!! However, I did manage to get a shot of my Phred enjoying a bit of smokey BBQ goodness!!
Phred does not often have such meaty goodness in his face!
And, of course there was cake. If you don’t know yet, I have to say that I. LOVE. CAKE. Preferably (pay attention if you want to stalk/woo me with cakey goodness!!) white cake with buttercream frosting. I’m really not a huge fan of chocolate cake. And if you REALLY want to impress me, find a place that makes those old very sugar-y not quite hard but a little crunchy frosting flowers.
But I digress.
We had birthday cake.
Cake with candle holes 🙂
And we also had candles.
Miscellaneous candles
And at one point the candles were on the cake AND lit! But of course, no picture again!
My sister also brought my dad a Birthday Dutch Apple Pie – which is still in the refrigerator at his house!!
After dinner we watched a little TV and then my brother’s deer feeder went off and the dogs were brought in! And the deer showed up.
Lots of them!
And one of them was non-too pleased about having me taking pictures of his family!!
All in all it was a pretty great day! It’s always nice to spend time with family!
Hope your enjoying your week — and we’re on the downhill slope to the weekend!!!Â
