An awesome 30th birthday party.

me_dad_0809
My family and friends threw a fantastic party last weekend for my Dad and I.  Papa turned 60 on August 2nd, and I turn 30 on August 30th.  It was awesome.  Great food, two cakes, two kegs of beer, very excellent company, hand-painted signs (mine had a bike; Dad’s had a Mustang) — it’s own name: JOHNAPOLOOZA (since we have the same name).  A lot of people put a lot of work into a very nice evening.  And I only got thrown in the pool once.  My youngest brother, well, he went in three times.  The last time, my sister-in-law and I just flipped him over the side.

My father and I look much more alike when I’m not bearded. He looked exactly like me in his 20s. I keep trying to convince him to grow a beard, but no luck. I think 30 years in the military have him liking to be clean-shaven.  But now you see where I get my extreme hairiness from.
