Melvin's 90th Birthday Party

We had a great time this past weekend! It was my Great Uncle Melvin's 90th birthday, and my aunt Joan and uncle Barry had a party at their home. It was an awesome turnout, with about 30 people that attended. It was nice to see our extended family. This picture below is Melvin's sister (Elsie Mae), my mom (blue shirt), and her cousins Linda (pink) and Michelle (dots). It was so special to watch Uncle Melvin blow out the candles on his 90th birthday cake.

Melvin and his sister, Elsie Mae. My grandpa Harold was their brother, but he passed away a few years ago.

It's not often that we can get a family pic!!

My cousin, Scott, and Jason

My cousin, Stacey, and her daughter, Makenzie. We got to celebrate her 2nd birthday.

There was even more excitement...here is my uncle Barry opening his Father's Day gift from my cousin, Scott, and his wife, Ashley. What is it??? It's a calendar...announcing that...

They are expecting a little one in January 2011!!

We had such a fun time! There were so many things to celebrate and it was nice to get in the pool for the first time this summer. We definitely need to do this more often!
