Big Al Turns 71!!! (picture overload)

Al turned 71yrs young last Sunday.  On Saturday they, Diane and Al, had a VERY fun party planned at a "bowling alley."  It was a blast!!!!!  Most of Al's kids were there and most of Diane's family as well.  The kids bowled like there was not tomorrow and so did some of the adults, which resulted in some very sore arms the following day :)

Al and Diane.... 


 Most of the grandkids.  Note Milli, not wanting to be in the picture, at all! 


Bowling pics form the rear... the best "form" goes to Dave Pearce, seen bottom left. 
left to right: Me, Bob, Dave T., Jake, Abuela, Sean and Dave P.  


Bowling pics from the front.  
Again, I think best bowling face goes to Dave Pearce or Al.  LOVE IT!!!
left to right: Sean & Alex, Dave T., Sarah, Todd (Diane's son, he is just awesome! and a new grandpa!!!), Todd and Mackay, Sean M. & Chole, Karalee & Alex, Gary, Me, Gary (again), Birthday Boy and Dave P.


Cutie Pies.  I just love these two!!!


Max, Megs and Jake.  Max was so funny this evening.  He was singing Beiber (sp? don't even care to look it up) and was actually pretty good and was cute to take our jokes.  These "older" cousins are super cute with the younger ones.  I love Jake's crazy face in this picture too.  


Maddie and Leah.  Later in the evening they were playing bar tenders with Jake.  
Lots of opened soda cans, ooooops!  But they had fun.  :) 


Emily with her chubbers, Riley.  He is a cute "little" tank! 


My cutie pie, Otapotamous and Abuela.


Milli was so good all night.  She was just pleased as could be playing with balloons and "coloring" on the bowling score sheet.  Plus, she was just so happy.  LOVE HER!!!!! 


This was such a fun party!  We all really enjoyed it!!! But of course, the best part was celebrating Al.  It was his b-day after all and we love him.  :)  He is a sweet grandpa.... Happy Day to Al!!!!

71? Really? What an AWESOME party. I would love to celebrate at a bowling alley, party. I am glad that everyone (almost) was able to make it, and that y'all had a great time. Happy Birthday to 71 years young Al.
