I learned some very interesting things about the year 1949 today.
*Volkswagen Beetles were introduced in the U.S.
Only 2 were sold.
*NATO was formed
*Harvard Law school began admitting women
*a new car cost $1,420
*a postage stamp cost 3 cents
*The first Emmy Awards were given out
*The Chinese Civil War ended
But, the coolest and most interesting thing about 1949, to me, (January 17, to be precise) is that my dad was born :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!
The day started with birthday cards and a SHOUTOUT on NBC 15 news!
Trinity is posing with Dad and the I love You Forever and Ever mug she got him.
This is the toy fatboy motorcycle she got him, too. It's already had several passengers, including her Barbie doll and a Little Pet Shop bird.It's loud and it goes!
He also got some Centrum Silver vitamins(for those over 50)...tee hee...a magazine, cupcakes, and some ginormous Hershey bars.
He's about to savor his cupcake after Trinity extinguished the candle out by throwing a balloon on it.
Yikes. Near heart-attacks were had by all!
Bruce bought 200 hundred balloons to blow up. We were only able to blow up 100 before we started passing out :)
Trinity had a blast with them.....and still is.
The day is being topped off with a special steak and potato dinner prepared by Chef Bruce and cheesecake by me and Jell-O (no bake cheesecake).
