So this past week, my daddy - o celebrated his 60th birthday! Sis and I planned a small family gathering in the 'Quah at my cousins house. Cousin offered to take Pop to the casino (he is the luckiest winner I know and all he takes in is $40!!!) and a steak dinner (dinner = lunch where I'm from) and he took the bait. Well, Saturday morning as we were rounding out the crew to hit the road, she called and said that Dad was cancelling, he got too hot the day before (he works for ODOT) and has had a bad headache and leg cramps and he just didn't feel good. So she tried to persuade him to come up, all while he was getting pretty ticked at her. I could seriously just hear my Dad getting after her. Anyways, long story short, we had to tell him what we were doing in order for him to come up. As usual, he told us "we didn't need to make a fuss for him and he didn't need no cake and presents" and blah, blah, blah. But I think he had a good time. In true fashion, I left the picture takin' up to Sis and am patiently awaiting to see them. There is one picture that I am dying to show my friends and family......it involves an apron.....and me in the kitchen. No one will believe it, that's why I had to have proof!!! But I swear, it really happened.
Here a few recent pictures that I do happen to have on hand.....
Cotton Bowl 2012 - Go Hogs!!!!! Sis, Jeremey, and I were the only ones cheering for the piggies, Dad and Bill are OU through and through.
Funny story about the shirt Pop is wearing.....Sis and I HATE and I do mean HATE it with a passion. It's some kind of Indian chick with a wolf laying on her. She is basically naked but the wolf is covering her up. And get this, he bought it at the post office. Seriously, I can't make this up. We told him it looks dirty and he shouldn't wear it. Well, now he wears it just to see us get all riled up. He sure is getting ornery in his old age!!!
