On August 26th my dad turned 60 years old! He's still more of a kid than I am and the best dad in the world! Dad recently discovered iTunes and called me one day with instructions. He told me to go get every CD I had and throw them away. I asked why and he told me that he had just shipped me a collection of CDs and it was all I would need. The next day I received a 6 disc set of the best music of all time...and only every-other-song is a Rolling Stones song...this is very impressive for Daddy. In all honesty, I was expecting Hot Rocks, 40 Licks, and a few other classic rock gems.
Then there was trouble. My dad has a screened in deck that rivals any you have ever seen. He has CD changer and receiver and all that jazz in a special cooled cabinet out there. Problem is, his CD changer only holds 5 CDs. Oh the hardship.
My simple solution was an iPod with the appropriate cable. So my sister and I set out to get the best birthday gift ever. Here are a few pictures from our long weekend with Dad.
He's a good sport...
Whoop de Doo! Best bag ever! We got dad a bag full of corny party supplies
Here are a few of his favors:
We had the iPod engraved. "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll But I Like It" (of course a Rolling Stones song) and a Happy Birthday!
Dad playing with his new toy!
Happy Birthday Daddy! We love you!On a side note, because I traveled to see Daddy, I missed Tara's birthday celebration! Her mom came to town and everyone went out to eat at Lakeside Tavern! I'm sad I missed it, but know she was showered with lots of love!!
