We had roast duck (courtsey of Jim's friend), the favorite green Jell-O salad (whipping cream, cottage cheese, pineapple, pistachio pudding) birthday pie and a party!
Let's blow out the candles--one, two, three, four! What, LHT is not four? Are you certain? Well, he had four candles.
New insulated snow boots from MRT. The flashlights are from Shawn and family.
Thanks for the ladder, family! Dad will now not kill himself by falling from an 8-foot tall wobbly ladder with three broken legs. Now he can fall from a sturdy, 10-foot tall ladder. Hehehe ;) (Knock on wood that doesn't ever happen.) I want to thank each of you beginning at the top with Shawn and Kimberly and kids, Melanie and Howard and kids, Todd and Amy and kids, Eric and Amy and kids, AnnMarie and Brandon and kids, Julie and Jim and kids, Kirsten and Jared and kids and David and Arbree and kids. Julie said she spearheaded the purchase because she thought Dad was going to fall building his shed or picking apples. Thanks for the money and for the agreement. He did fall off the ladder last year trying to cover the air conditioner outside the great room. The old ladder is one he found in the garbage after the builders had finished working on the roof at the middle school many years ago. What is that Grandpa Pitts always said? "One man's junk is another man's treasure."

Happy Birthday Dad! Wish we could have been there to help celebrate!
Nice boots! Hope they keep the feet warm while pushing around all the snow in the four block radius of home!
I was remembering the one fall off of the ladder when Dad tried to answer the phone, while on top off a rigged up scaffolding-type of ladder on the stairs. Broken ribs are never a good thing. Good luck with this ladder Dad!
P/S Didn't know the pictures were up. I haven't been on anyone's blog for weeks!
