Potts is 60!!!


This charming young man just turned 60.
Mom planned a little get together for him where we all dressed up as a different decade from his life. I took the 50's (of course) and sported Grandpa's letterman sweater from his high school.
 
Ignore my strange husband...
David took the 70's where dad was truly at his prime. He looked freakishly just like Dad.
While we were there we each presented a poem or memory on his behalf. It was almost like a very silly and early funeral for him that he could actually attend.We laughed and cried through each one. It was a wonderful trip down memory lane.

We got him the game Pie face for his gift. It was both a great idea and a terrible idea. There may have been a few tears shed from the little ones who weren't quite expecting a face full of whipped cream, but it was a hoot to watch anyway. 
 It was a sweet and simple party, because little did her know, the real surprise was yet to come....
