My Milestone
Birthday Celebrations
This year was a milestone
birthday - the BIG Seven Oh. This was also the first year that I had
two birthday parties. The first was at Strathroy hosted by my brother Mike and
his wife Susan. My cousin Karen and her husband Don along with your grandmother
attended this one. This party was a surprise in that it was integrated
with our annual "Reunion of Cousins" celebration that was scheduled
for August.
Susan and Mike gave me a customized T-Shirt celebrating
this milestone occasion as well as a beer mug with the same "Vintage
1949" logo. Susan also provided an awesome birthday cake fully
equipped with 70 candles. As you can see from the photos this was quite the
celebration.
My second birthday party occurred on my actual birthday
September 20th. Marie took some time to decorate the whole house with 70th Birthday
decorations. As you can see from the photos she did quite the job.

Cara, our next door
neighbour, attended with her two children Mia and Heidi. As shown in the photos
the kids had quite the time. They even helped Marie clean up the
decorations after the party. I was presented with my second birthday cake and
as you can see from the photo below, Heidi assisted me in blowing out the
candles. After the dinner I got to open more presents on the back deck with the
assistance of Mia and Heidi who also took the time for a refreshing ice cream
cone.

By far the best present I
received with my new 2019 Mustang convertible. It has a V8 engine that produces
440 horsepower that's driven by a 10 speed automatic. It has six driving modes
including a Track and a Drag mode. In each mode the suspension, the exhaust,
and transmission shift points all change to make it a completely different
driving experience.
