95 family members gathered at Kelley's barn in Mapleton on Sat., April 11, 2009 to celebrate my dad's 95th birthday. Robert M. Kerr was born April 7, 1914. He's still pretty healthy and very sharp of mind. Here he prepares to blow out the candles on his cake.
Dad loved having so many of his family members gather around for the festivities. Here he poses with four of his children--Cathy, Kristen, Greg and Steve. We missed Jackie who was unable to come from Idaho and Kelley who was on a business trip in China.
Two of his siblings, younger brother, Douglas and younger sister, Coral joined the fun. Greg and Steve stand next to their father.
We had a yummy brunch which included pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs, juice, milk and this beautiful platter of fruit prepared by my sister Cathy. It was so inviting that I had to take a picture and share it with you. It was super awesome to have Tiffany and Abigail and Jen and her sister Jamie and girls available to celebrate the event. Thanks for coming girls!!! No one else traveled so far to get there-Tif from Texas and Jen from Shanghai, China. We also appreciated Hilary, Adam, Britton, Jenna and Korinne coming south to help us move and attend this special event.
Right after the party, Tiffany, Abigail, Steve and I headed for Idaho with the pickup truck and a trailer. We planned to celebrate Easter with Heather's family and bring back our table & chairs, Steve's desk, an antique chest, etc. from the storage unit there. I'll add some pictures of our Easter celebration. We were lucky to have another little egg hunt with Britton, Jenna, Korinne and Abigail on Monday night in the front yard of our new place. It's so awesome to have these activities with giggling, smiling grandkids! Even though we were exhausted from moving, partying and traveling, we loved it and volunteered to babysit while Tiffany, Hilary, Adam and his sister Kim enjoyed a Jazz game courtesy of one of Steve's dealers.
