Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Cabernet in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"

Happy Birthday To Me

 

Thursday was you guessed it my birthday and another good guess I turned the big 60.

When I got to work I found these on my desk. As people started arriving to work I started to notice everyone was wearing black,since we work for a church I asked if we were having a funeral and several just laughed and said kind of of,I then realized it was me they were mourning for.

Then my coworkers handed me this shirt and said I had to wear it all day. When I saw the picture I knew Angela had something to do with it. And yes that is me in 1977.    Ok stop laughing now!!

I see your still laughing I bet there are pictures in your closet you hope no one see’s.

We all had pizza and cake for lunch. The cake had a picture of Annie our lab when she was a puppy and of course she was wearing black also.

We have a school at the church and these are some of the teachers (My Groupies) advertising that Kenny was 60.

Even my son stopped by after he got off work to get a picture with the old man.

I had a great birthday and thanks to everyone that shared it with me.

 

Even Max had to get in on the party fun..

Happy Birthday -- what a great day you had! When I turned 60, I retired...just didn't want to do the job any longer & have no regrets. But, I didn't work for a church -- maybe I would've felt different if I had.

What a celebration you had, Kenny. Happy 60th! Don't your pals at the church know that 60 is the new 50? I can say that because I turn 60 this year, too. ;)

Happy Birthday! Nice gathering and nice gifts.
(never easy getting stuff for an old guy)
I seem to recall having as much or more facial hair in 1977. Funny how that is? Sure wish I could have kept some of it for the top of my head. *sigh*

Kenny, I see you moved the Lazy Boys back.We tried it the other way also and it didn't work out for us.Being able to turn the TV helps watching from there without neck strain.Made me a little homesick but glad you are enjoying it so much.
