Grandpa Arly turns 80

The weekend before Christmas, we all celebrated Grandpa Arly's 80th birthday. The social bug that he is, wanted to have a big celebration with all of the people he loves so that is just what we did. Somewhere around 80 people gathered together at Shafter MB for food, live music, and hanging out. Just by the look on Arly's face we knew that he loved every minute of the party.

I didn't get to grow up with Grandpas so marrying into a family that has an amazing one has been such a blessing!

The band was amazing, playing some old country music. (my favorite) One of the guys in the band is a friend of Arly's who is also blind.

What an amazing testament to the type of guy Arly is. I hope I can fill a room with this many family and friends when I am 80.
