Birds 'n Butterflies: Happy birthday, Daddy!

A certain young man had an important birthday this past weekend! My sweet Daddy turned 60!!!!!

Happy, happy birthday to an amazing man! He is such an example of a godly leader, servant, provider, and protector! He loves to have fun, and has a huge heart for others! I am so thankful for his life, and look forward to many more years together!

For his birthday, we decided to surprise him with all 6 of us children being at my parent's house (and my Aunt Marlene and Uncle David--didn't get a pic of them :(. It's like an act of congress to get EVERYONE together at one time with all of our different schedules, but we did it!!! We all met up just down the road from my parent's house and caravanned up the driveway honking our horns...

My dad came out on the porch to see what the commotion was (of course, my mom knew!)...He was so surprised!!

We grilled out steaks and had a lovely lunch on the porch!

In addition to celebrating my dad's birthday, we also celebrated Nathan's graduation from UGA. He was supposed to walk, but decided since he has been finished since December and has been at home since then (and he is getting married NEXT weekend!) that he didn't want to participate in the official ceremony...so we had one for him...Bosshardt style!

Part of the agenda for the day was getting a family photo! Since it is so difficult to get EVERYONE together at one time, we decided that we needed to take advantage of this opportunity. I just used my camera on a tripod, and Uncle David pressed the button for us! They turned out pretty cute!
