My father in law turned 90 late last month and my sister in law threw a party for him at her house. I was asked to assemble a photo board of pics that I've taken and ones I found in Russell's stuff.
It was a BEAUTIFUL day. We couldn't have asked for better weather.
This is my sister in law's dog, Harriet. She's a redbone hound.

I was 'official event photographer' and tried to get candids as well as group pics.

How fun. Happy Birthday to your father in law - he looks darn sharp at 90. Good for him. I'm sure it was a happy day surrounded by family and of course, friend Herbie. Nice photos and family smiles
ReplyDeleteMy FIL still drives too! We had a great time! Thanks!
DeleteIt's impossible to not feel good about this post - he made it to 90, is smiling, is with his buddy of 85 years, and is about to eat a cupcake. Wonderful things, all of it.
