Pat is 50!

Pat insisted on having a very small celebration for his 50th birthday.
So on his birthday, he went out to a nice dinner at Outback and had
a quiet observance of his big day with Kathy, Brian, Bridget and Alissa.

Well......we couldn't just leave that alone. So a week later, Pat went golfing with Terry, Mike and
Jim and returned to Jim's house for a little surprise celebration of his half of a century on this earth.

The Decorations and Balloons and Gifts.

Pat really was surprised.....Pat and Brian.

Jim cooked delicious filets and strip steaks.

Michael and Bridget watch Jim light the sparklers...the cake...Pat, Sue and Jim admire the cake.

Pat started whacking the pinata and then Jim came along and drilled a hole in it to help out.

Pat scored two points!....soon there was candy everywhere.
Sean, Michael and Alissa watch Pat read a candy bar.

Pat tries on his head massager.....then Becky shows him how to use it.
Mike enjoyed it but Jim has a ticklish head so he laughed a lot....and so did we!
