50th Birthday Party Celbration!

I turned 50 in December - Kieth will be 50 in 4 weeks - so we had a big birthday celebration out at our house last night - LOTS of friends & family showed up to help us celebrate & we had an AWESOME time!!!
Towards the beginning of the evening alot of the ladies hung out in the house...

Most of the guys hung out outside - the awful wind of the day laid nicely so it turned out to be a beautiful evening!
There was a bounty of food as many bought salads to go with the burgers & brats the boys grilled for us as the girls shuttled the food from grills to kitchen so the line could keep going!
Tucker & Lincoln at the grills - had lots of company standing around to visit with!
Lots of cars filled the yard...
As it got dark it was thought there should be a campfire ... good idea!
Colby got her Grandmas to stand with her for a picture.
And Grandpa Rich too!
It was my Mom & Dad's 53rd anniversary yesterday too so we were celebrating that too!
Here I was opening many funny cards about our future as 'old' people!
Rose came from Gillette to share in our celebration!
Sharon, Becky, Deb, & Rose out by the fire
Pretty fire! They kept it going real good!
The circle around the fire kept getting bigger & bigger!
Good friends hanging out together in the calm cool evening around the fire! Duke & Margit were even there from Clear Lake! Several from our class here - Deb, Bob, Duke (class below us) Neal, Kieth, Rose - fun night!
The chairs around the campfire spot this morning - along with the wood hauling 4-wheeler & trailer! The chairs are all picked up & put away now - the kitchen is cleaned - the dishes washed - just the memories of the evening are left! And they are good ones! Thank you to all of you who came out & shared our evening with us! You made it a great time that will not be forgotten!
