Old Pa turns 87!

We had one super special birthday to celebrate down the beach this year - Old Pa turning 87! We were so happy he was able to come and spend some time with us at Kingston, especially since he and Nana started all this beach fun all those years ago!
 Checking to see if the beach looks the same as when he left it last...
 Ma Ma decorating Old Pa's cake with just a few eager beavers ready to pounce on an idle spoon or bowl!
 The finished product.
  We had some plans that got delayed due to some rainy weather that morning but we at least found a few minutes to spend with the big lobster.
 Back for Old Pa's fish and chip lunch...
 ...and a rousing "Happy Birthday" song of course!
 Leyla eying of "her" cake she "helped" make.
 After lunch we were able to do what we attempted earlier - go to the tractor museum! Old Pa was in his element looking around at all the machinery.
 La and Jack and all the kids had a ball roaming around, looking at all the Olden Day Stuff and peppering the owner with a million questions.
 Testing out the old bikes.
 A good little excursion for our tribe of a least a dozen that afternoon. But, Old Stuff can only hold their attention for so long, so we left Old Pa to continue his visit while we hoped across the road to the...
 ...skate park! There's a couple of smarty pants amongst us who have a keen radar for fun and made sure we put all the scooters and bikes in the cars before we left.
Only a few epic stacks, a lot of good recoveries and many brave attempts that afternoon. We had a great day out with Old Pa, celebrating him and always appreciative of his generosity in opening up his Kingston home to us all every year.
