Backyard BBQ.

Sunday (the most beautiful day ever) Dennis, Michael and I opened the summer with a few hours at the Darien Swim and Racquet Club before heading over to Chris and Gail's for a backyard BBQ to wrap up the birthday celebration for GGD.  The weather was stunning, the food was marvelous and the candles were burning.  It was the perfect way to celebrate Great-Grandpa Dick's 80 years!!  Thanks to Chris and Gail for hosting everyone.

It's SUMMER!

Cooling off with a beverage.

Off To the Races.

We spent Saturday of Grandpa Dick's 80th Birthday Extravaganza at the race track.  Michael loved the horses, but hated the heat.  We weren't there very long to say the least, and Dennis didn't win a bet.

It was a beautiful day!

Den was betting...

Michael was hot...

And nobody won.

My Great-Grandpa Dick turns 80 tomorrow!!  He came all the way from California to hang out with us and I'm super excited to see him (and Great-Gramma Joan) today.  Off to the race track we go.  Pictures from the weekend soon.

Happy 80th Birthday, G.G.D.!!
