I knew something was up around the Leman household…but I didn’t know what was up. Later I find out that Mrs. Uppington was being very sneaky and planning a surprise party! My first clue was when I woke up and my daughter Hannah and her husband Josh were on the patio in the morning drinking coffee — I was shocked! And I was hoping the other kids weren’t far behind…
And they weren’t! Kevin and Lauren flew in from California the next day along with other friends and family! The party was so great it made me want to be 70 all over again (and I thought that was impossible!) The best part was listening to all my kids and grandchildren talk about our relationship and what counted most in life to them.
To top it off my sweet wife bought me a 1950 Deluxe Ford – Little did she know that was my FIRST car. I paid 200 dollars for it. I think she paid a little more… She completely surprised me.
It was one of the those benchmarks in life that you don’t forget! Everyday since I keep thinking about how wonderful that evening was. How much love was in the that room.
It is a privilege to be a Dad and a husband, those are two things I certainly cut out to be!
Here are a few photos from our evening that my daughter Hannah took! Keep scrolling to get to the GIVEAWAY!

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite authors!!! Ever since your book “Birth Order” came out, I feel like that has helped “explain” some relationship issues throughout my life! I only wish I would have had this new book for my now 25-year old whom I always called “High Maintenance” and with whom we already fought world world III when she was 3!!! (She’s a great Oncology Nurse NOW and I realize why she was so tenancious as a toddler!) By the way — I did post on facebook!
