Dad's 'Speed Limit' Birthday Party

My dad turned 55 at the end of March and we had a family dinner to celebrate! With all my siblings and their families, we had 16 people total! My Mom & Dad are both trying to live a healthier lifestyle, so I made Low-Fat Chicken Tortilla Soup, corn on the cob, and a reduced sugar version of a cake (the boxed kind). It was actually all very good!

All the kids wanted to help Dad with his candles, so we relit the candles at least 4 different times to let little boys have their fun!

I love it when my whole family is together... there is a lot of laughter and loudness and that is what family is all about, to me at least!

Happy Birthday Daddy! I love you so much. You gave when you didn't have anything and you loved unconditionally. I hope just a little of that rubs off on me.
