The month of August has been a very, very busy month for us all. There has been LOTS! going on. It just seems like there is NO time for the things that really matter in life like; posting, catching up on other blogs and up loading pictures.
I realize we all need to take a one day at a time. Enjoy the day and do what we can. I also thought, the memories and these pictures from Anthony's birthday weekend are just too great not too share. Sooo, as I often think..."Better Later then Sooner"...I am posting in my own time.
((Anthony is Joe's son, Karen's grandson and the first Great Grandchild to my parents.))
Anthony lives with his mom and has come down South to spend some of the summer with his dad. They have not seen each other in well over a year due to the accident Joe had last year.
In the summer fun, Anthony met up with Alex and Brian. They all quickly renewed the great friendship they formed years ago. Most importantly, the weekend of August 8th was Anthony's 10th birthday. We got started planning for the festivities right away.
We went shopping for food, birthday treasures and maybe one or two other things.
Joe prepared a great feast fit for Kings and Queens alike.
We were protected from birthday thiefs!
Yes!!!
The gifts and food were just that good! 
The BEST thing about the weekend was not the gifts, the food...
OR
the friendships and the family bonding that occurred that weekend...
It was declared...
"THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!!!"
What a beautiful and happy family.
