this january 22, my dad turned 50!! yes, i cant believe he's so OLD but its funny because he will never be the kind to grow up. He is always playing jokes and cant be an old man. So, yeah, hes fifty. for my gift i gave him a card...AND some registration forms for AARP! it was soooo funny and you should have SEEN some other gifts he got...man they were funny. {a cane, some fake glasses, vitamins, and books}. my aunts, his sisters, threw him a party at the mexican restaurant VIVA MERCADOS. it was a blast cause he was surprised and there were like 100 people there he had grown up with and done so much with. We all told stories of our lives and stories with him, and you can only imagine to where they went. they went from laughing, to heartfelt, to 'I CANT BELIEVE YOU DID THAT!', to 'that was so fun'. The stories were great, the pictures were great, the food was great, the people were great, but he is sooo much GREATER. i love him, and hes funny, but cool, known at by my friends as 'dad who wears true religions' and by all the guys 16-30 as ' the unbeatable basketball/racquetball player' . hes the best and you all wish he was your dad. but hes mine. HA. gosh....'HALF A CENTURY!' as my sis aubs put it!
