an 80th birthday

This weekend was my father-in-law's 80th birthday and we celebrated with a big bash at my sister-in-law's house.  Everything was decorated so perfectly.  My favorite were the big photos she had printed and displayed in old window frames...

She also, just so happens to have an amazing brick pizza oven on her back patio!

So pizzas were being made throughout the evening and different family members brought salads, so we all ate til our bellies were stuffed.  The kids ran around the yard with cousins, there was an ongoing slideshow of old family pictures and, of course, we all gathered around to sing happy birthday to the man who made this huge family possible.  It was a wonderful celebration.

My sister-in-law also had this awesome table made from old pallets...

And this cute little bench made from a leftover support beam...

Such a cute house and such a great party!
