50
-
Do you see this young man? Hard to believe our Dad is 50, isn't it? The kids put up construction paper posters everywhere to announce the occasion and we enjoyed a celebration yesterday evening.
-
We don't often post about Dad on here, but be assured that we think he is the greatest Dad in the whole world and love him to pieces!
-
Happy 50th Birthday, Dad!!! May God continue to bless your life in the coming year.

Here's the man!
-
Time for gifts.

Jack decorated his package.

Molly was enjoying the evening.

Connor, Aiden and Luke
-
Whoo-hoo... caught them smooching!
-
We put together a photo album with notes from all of us and, of course, lots of pictures.

Jack and Anna

Mother made a delicious, moist chocolate cake with homemade icing. The little things on top of the cake are a basketball hoop and players. Dad enjoys most sports, but especially basketball. He still plays too... and is good.
-
I love you, Dad!

Happy Birthday Mr. McDonnell!

Nice job on your wrapping paper decorations Jack - that was a nice idea.

The Basketball cake also looks neat. My Dad likes playing basketball espescially too. However, he was once playing in a Father-Son basketball game with his Dad (my Granddad) where one of the fathers had a heart attack and eventually died so it's probably good to be careful not to play too hard when your getting up around 50. :)
