B-rad's B-Day

It's the first grand baby's 16th birthday! They grow up all too fast.
Birthday boy's dad grilled again this year and surprised us with some steak and shrimp kabobs.
All the little ones are getting so big. Here's the oldest granddaughter talking with my mother and aunt, her Great Grandmother.
The party started off with chowing down on hamburgers, hot dogs, kabob, corn on the cob, cooked onions and chips and cheese dip.
Then the birthday boy opened his presents. There was a whole stack of cards, all with some monetary value, one small gift bag...
...and one small package the contained some napkins and a spoon.
That small package was just the intro to a much larger package....
...which pleased B-rad greatly!
I was a small refrigerator filled with snack packs of pudding.
After the gift was hauled off to his room I heard my father say, "These children get the strangest presents."
Time to blow out candles and sing "Happy Birthday"...
... Ice cream on a stick...
...watching a movie...
...conversing...
...relaxing and enjoying...
...then outside to enjoy the beautiful weather.
All the kids went out to play.
It rained nerf bullets on the trampoline...
...which the children enjoy gathering up to reload the gun.
It was a great day with lots of fun and the grandson still couldn't believe he actually got a frig days later. The dog was ready to relax by the end of it all.
