Gido will be 90 years old in Nov. 2006, and he is still going strong when it comes to his garden. I have many great photos of him in his favorite place, and here are the latest(2006)......................enjoy!
Mom's 65th Birthday party
Prep work always goes much faster when everyone helps out..............
Adam & Emily preparing fruit Kabobs.
here you see Evan & Daylan ripping lettuce for Mom's famous Caesar salad!
Thanks so much Betty for including Mom's party in your busy day of three functions(not to mention the distance you traveled to get there).
Mom & Jeep, Velva & Elaine.........Jeep's Mom loves a party, so glad she was able to make it!
Another long time friend............Julie(& Doug). Mom and Julie went to school together.

Mom & Annie..they have known each other for many moons..........were once neighbors.
Auntie Norma & Uncle John also had 3 functions in one day, but took the time, and made the effort to come out from Edmonton..........much apprectiated thank you!
A few of the guests also attended a wedding that night. Long time friends Larry & Terry were one of the couples that made the effort to attend two functions in one evening! Thanks for coming!
The chefs.........not an easy job B-B-Qing 40+ steaks to perfection!
Some of the party guests enjoying their meal............the whole idea for Jeep was that everyone could come to the party and enjoy a steak supper without having to bring anything.....so it was! I am happy to say that many said how good the meal was.............top notch Alberta beef(home grown), and all the fixin's..................if you are reading this, and you were there, so glad you enjoyed!

Themed to a favorite song, everyone got a kick out of Jeep's rendition of.........My saddle, My pony, and Me!
A party is not a party without music..........let's dance!
Parties over...............even the dog is tired!
Rainbows & Sunsets while sitting by a relaxing fire..........doesn't get much better than this!
After a days work of getting ready for Mom's 65th birthday party we spent the evening relaxing by the fire. This is what we were treated to.............rainbow in the east/sunset to the west...............a very beautiful way to end the day! Tomorrow is the big day!
