On May 15th (or 16th... Grandpa Collard isn't for sure on the actual day he was born) Collard turned 80 years old! He is getting really fussy in his old age and doesn't like any gifts, so we have to be creative with any gift we give him or else he will give it back and tell us to take it back to the store (no joke, he made Tracy take back the pajamas she gave him for Christmas!) Tammy and Terry came up with a great idea to get him a night at the Little America Hotel and we could all go to dinner as a family and have a little surprise party in the room.
We decorated the room then hid and waited for them to arrive.
The kids and I hid behind the bed.
When he finally came in the room, he was pretty shocked, but excited.
Before we went to dinner, Tracy made a pretty big announcement... She's preggo!! We are all so excited for Baby Jones due in October!!!
We went to dinner at the Little America cafe... yum!!
Then we came back up to the room and spent forever taking pictures. Here's the whole gang minus Jeremy who is taking the picture.
Collard with his kids...
Collard with the kids and in-laws
Collard with his grand-kids. P.S. Doesn't it look like Tyler and Tracy are holding hands behind his back? Awww... cute! :)
And just so the in-laws wouldn't feel left out, we got a picture with us in there too. Not sure why Colton thinks he is an in-law!
And finally Collard with the great grandkids.
After all those pictures, my kiddos were d.o.n.e
We sang happy birthday and had cake.Carson obviously enjoyed his cake
Grandpa Collard did mention that he thought the party was missing a streaker, so Makayla took it upon herself to fix that.
I can't wait to show her dates these pictures someday!
Happy Birthday Collard!!!
