My Dad's 70th Birthday Party

Saturday, we celebrated my dad's 70th birthday. We had a large party at a Chinese restaurant and then had a second party at my parents' house for family only. Over 90 people showed up at the restaurant to celebrate with my dad. It was great to see old friends and spend time with family.

My dad and the cake

See the small fire on the cake? That is what 70 candles look like!
