Grandaddy's 85th Birthday

On October 5th my grandaddy turned 85!  The next weekend we headed to Houston to celebrate.  We had a family birthday party complete with BBQ and the most delicious desserts.  We took the opportunity to take some fun family pictures too.

Dessert and beer

Delicious desserts - mom made a wonderful chocolate cake and we got a chocolate meringue and lemon meringue (Grandaddy's favorite) from House of Pies

One great big family picture

The girls enjoy riding Mack but he prefers to lay down when they're doing it.  Luckily he doesn't seem to mind.
