Happy Birthday Mimi!

Today is Mimi's 60th Birthday!

Mimi's birthday cookie cake, shared by the family at the laser show.

Last night the whole family got together for a birthday celebration. We went to the Stone Mountain Golf Club, with plans to watch the laser show later (ironically, this entire plan was my first "alone" date with Todd seven years ago!!). While we were waiting on our food, a HUGE thunderstorm broke out, and we had front row seats to watch the wind and rains pouring down over the lake. We thought we might have to rethink our laser show plans, but fortunately it cleared in enough time, and it was PACKED!

Jonathan had had enough of the paparrazzi shots at this point, as Papa Fish looks on.

Lauren and Mimi. They look like they have matching haircuts with their blond curls....hmmm...guess we know where she gets it! She was obsessess with the flashlight in her hand, and of course Baby, her doll. She's like a bag lady with all the things she insists on carrying around with her sometimes.

Uncle Todd decided the kids all needed the lighted swords they were hawking. They sure did have fun playing while we waited for it to get dark enough for the laser show to begin.

What a fun surprise from Todd!

The "bag lady" plays with her light saber...and her flashlight...and Baby!

Jonathan (the Master Jedi of the group) shows us his moves.

In the end, the kids loved the laser show, the fireworks, and playing together outside. Two out of three crashed before the show was over, so we carried some groggy/sleepy kids back to the cars for our birthday wishes, and farewells. Lauren was asleep before we even got out of the parking lot....and up again at 645 this morning. Did I mention she's taking a REALLLLY long morning nap today??? :)

Thanks for a great night, and Mimi, may your next 60 years be as wonderful.
