Uncle Mike's 50th Birthday Party

Uncle Mike turned 50 this year! Aunt Holly started planning this party about a month before, delegating jobs and working on things behind his back. It was so fun! 😊

The day before the party, Abi and I spent a long morning making things, like peanut butter pie, caramel popcorn, and sloppy joes. After I made the pies, Mom and I went to see Iris, so Abi had to fry up the 30# of hamburger by herself. 😳

Aunt Holly had all their friends and family record videos of them saying happy birthday or whatever they wanted to about Uncle Mike. They were all sent to us, then Abi put them together to make a nice video. It was so funny watching the clever things people thought of! We hadn't made our video yet, so we recorded it around 10:30 that night. Abi had to finish the video compilation, then download it. It didn't finish downloading till about 1 am. We stayed up till about midnight. We were pretty tired the next day!

All loaded up!

They rented a firemen hall for the party.























My cousin, Savanna, did the boards.





Waiting for the birthday guy...

I made four pies for the party. I planned to give a whole one to Uncle Mike for his birthday. He loves our PB cream pies!







We sure surprised him!















Poor Uncle Mike was so surprised he couldn't stop shaking!











When you're three, you can't eat a chocolate cupcake without wearing it.

We brought speakers and a laptop along to play the video compilation.
