Pap's Lallapalooza of a Party!!!!

Hello out there Blogland Neighborhood! Yikes!!! Has it been a week (or more) since the last blog post ?!?! Well, we apologize, but we've been trying to catch our breath after a very busy couple of work weeks AND a whirlwind of activity this past Sunday ! MBIAJ Headquarters was the setting for big doings around here !! We had a doozer of a shindig !!! A surprise party for the patriarch's 80th birthday !!! (patriarch = my Dad, George aka "Pap").




.......and here he is with Mom (Nancy) and their 8 grand-children






...and here are some of the characters who came to wish Pap a happy day .....












Now, friends and family ..... if you do NOT see your picture here it's because you promised to pay me NOT to put it on the blog ...... we take personal checks , money orders and cash ......

Anyhow, speaking of characters, guess whose birthday we're celebrating on Saturday (as in the 4th of July) ......




....none other than the Moonbeams Matriarch ... Mom/Nancy/Gimma (who informed me that if this picture showed up on the blog , she would disown me ..... good thing she doesn't have a clue how to work a computer !!!!!)

Be back soon!

Toodles,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)
