John's Birthday part 1

My hubby turned 50 years young on the 23rd. He chose to eat steak at home instead of going out to eat. We had a nice, quiet evening at home. Anna came when she got off of work.

The kids with the birthday boy.

Still has enough breath to blow out the candles. 

Ever since I've know him, he's been interested in astronomy, even taking classes in college. Many times I've heard him say he wishes he had a telescope. So, I got him one for his birthday.

Unbeknownst to John, this little celebration was just a precursor. We had bigger things planned for the weekend.

More about that festivity later.
