David Turned 50!!!

Yes, it's true, David is now 50 years old and he doesn't look a day over 35.  :-)  Really, we looked at the pictures and the kids declared that at about 35 he stopped changing and looks just the same today.  Yay!  He either looks really young or he looked old before his time.   Hahaha.

He loves having friends over for BBQ's so we decided to have a big birthday bash.  When the Powells plan a backyard event, you can pretty much plan on rain.  Sure enough.... it rained, and rained, and rained.  It was beautiful all week before his birthday and it's beautiful the next morning with no rain in sight for 2 weeks.  Needless to say, the BBQ got rained out.  We even had a jumpy house and everything and we really hoped the rain would stop.   But NO!!  It rained and rained.

An hour before the party was supposed to begin, we cancelled the BBQ part and just told everyone to come for cake a little later.  There were a few people coming from further away so we didn't cancel with everyone and just had a small BBQ in the house.  It turned out to be really fun and then more people came for cake.  All in all it worked out pretty well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID!!!
50 candles take a lot of people to light.

Grandpa and Boston!!



I thought this was funny because apparently someone didn't want the frosting so they cut just inside the frosting.   Hahahaha

This is the jumpy house in the beautiful weather... the day AFTER the party.

Rachel made a video for Dad's birthday which you can view at this link.  She did a really good job!!
