Happy 65th Birthday Dad!

My Dad is 65 today! He just finished RAGBRAI, the bike ride across Iowa, for the 22nd time. He runs around and plays with our kids. He stays busy with his work and community service. He doesn't seem like he's 65! Since his Dad lived to be 98, I pray that God will give him many more years as well.

Yesterday Karen and I took him out for breakfast to the Sundance Grill.

In the evening we celebrated with a steak dinner (which he had to grill himself!). We had a birthday rhubarb pie (Mom's specialty and Dad's favorite) for dessert.

Today we are heading out to Lake Michigan for a get-together with his side of the family. It's really because a bunch of my cousins are in town this week, but we keep telling him it's a big birthday bash for him.

Happy Birthday, Dad and Grandpa. We love you!
