Day 293 The Party (Photo A Day 2012)

 

My father Alphy celebrated his 80th birthday this weekend with a party in his adopted home of Ardboe Co Tyrone. It was a great night where we got to catch up with many of our friends and family that we don’t see often enough. The success of the party was due in no small measure to our sister Dolores and her family who look after Da so well.   This is Da along with my brother Thomas.
