Thursday we threw a surprise 70th birthday party for Grandpa at the Bomberger Farm. We are so thankful to have Grandpa with us! Seven years ago he was in the hospital and we almost lost him twice. It was a very hard year but we are so thankful to have our awesome Grandpa still with us! We love you Grandpa! :)

Aunt Jennifer, Aunt Rebekah, Zoe, and Abigail decorated the tables with "Dad" quotes and pictures of Grandpa...

The most whippings? hmmm Depends on who was the worst at blaming somenoe else, LOL Is the answer going to be on here later? haha.
ReplyDeleteVery good post, by the way. Chris
I'll also have to say it was one of the greatest blessings of my life to have Uncle Dave as my pastor for so long. My God richly bless him, Chris
ReplyDeleteYour grandpa looks so happy! That was so nice you all did that for him; everything looked so nice, as usual.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to guess your dad got the most whippings. I can see him needing it. haha
Well, Uncle John was the oldest and Uncle Steve was the baby for ten years so poor Daddy... of course he was always blammed for the mess, fight, etc. ;)
