Over the Hill


Monday, March 14, 2011 ----- Happy Birthday Bernie!!
Bernie turns the Big 5-0!!! This morning he opened his
gifts from us.







Then later that evening I hosted a surprise party for him!
He about didn't make it to his own party!! I had to tell several
'lies' to pull it off, ha ha. He didn't think he could get off work
that early and didn't want to drive a second vehicle to town
but luckily he did and we were all there to yell "Surprise"
when he walked into the Windy Gap!! :)




He was a good sport and was really glad
to see everyone there.


Lighting 50 candles would have been a fire hazard! lol






He received some really fun cards and gag
gifts which he enjoyed! This is a blow up walker!


An Old fart tool belt!



And a potty night light!



Some of the boys' friends were able to join us in celebrating.






Friends Jerry and Dori Kennicutt and their boys' came

Bernie's employers Steve and Susan and son Nick and his family
were able to join us too.

Bernie had a really great time seeing everyone and visiting!

Bernie had a great birthday!!! Look at all of the gifts and cards
he received!! He felt very loved and turning 50 wasn't quite so
painful!! Thanks to everyone who were able to join us and for
all of the bday wishes!! I think Bernie is very much feeling '50' and
I can't believe I'm married to such an old guy! LOL!!
