Birthday Celebrations

As I'm writing this I am here in Virginia Beach with my mom's side of the family. We are here for a family reunion at mom's older sister's house.

Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and I arrived Saturday evening. Aunt Teresa and Uncle Gary were already there when we arrived and then shortly after we had, Drew and Uncle Bob arrived.We talked for a while and had pizza for dinner.

Sunday night we celebrated Aunt Teresa and Uncle Gary becoming grandparents and Grandpa becoming a great grandfather. Aunt Deb bought a hat and silly ties for them to wear.

Monday night we celebrated my dad's b-day and had name tags to wear that said "Old Fart's Friends." Aunt Teresa organized an activity that night. We each drew a number and whoever had the same number was our partner. Each of us received a balloon and a sharpie and had to go off in another room with out partner to draw the portrait of our partner on the balloon. When we were done we had to give our balloons back to Aunt Teresa. When we were all done she picked them out of the bag and we had to guess whose portrait was on the balloon.

Last night we celebrated Uncle Bob's b-day.

Here are photos and a couple videos:
