Dads 60th Birthday

Dawn, Aya and I decided to throw a surprise birthday for my Dad. He turned 60 over the weekend. Instead of the usual birthday parties, we rented a yacht to go around the harbor in Marina Del Rey. We had appetizers, drinks, lunch and cake.

Hopefully everyone had a good time. It was JT's first time on a boat and I think he loved it. He liked being out on the top deck in the sun with the salt sea air blowing on him. JT liked watching all the sailboats go by.

It definately turned out better than I expected. Happy Birthday dad!!

Jen-

You couldn't have made it anyway...you were at the resort.

Jeff-

It was Dawn's idea to have a party. Aya's idea to rent a yacht. Miles had to find a yacht, caterer and pay!

JT does look huge and more like a little boy than a baby. Ayako's mom also looks so happy!

You've got a zillion pictures of Dawn and JT. Where are you, Miles? I was also looking for a picture of you from the party your mom threw for Aiden and couldn't find any. Are you camera shy or is the camera shy of you?

melissa-

nope, JT really isn't that big. i am not in the photos because i am the one taking the pictures. aya is camera challenged and everytime she uses the camera she misses shots. she can never push the button fast enough, let alone know how to use the camera.

as for aiden's bday, i think i napped with JT so i was MIA most of the party.
