a former Olympic Judo fighter and son of Fred Hand, a pretty famous Judo fighter in his own right. George and Atu fought in Judo matches and practiced together back in the day, and it's always good to see him.
On Saturday the 21st (also known as Paw Paw Gilbert's Birthday - Happy Birthday, Dad!), we did some fun local stuff to celebrate George's 45th birthday and Megan's 15th birthday (on the 24th). We always love visiting Bradley's Country Store, and we get great pictures out there. This day was no exception.
Later on, we celebrated with our friends, the Mazeracs (Kim's birthday was on the 18th) who brought Smallcakes for the occasion. We had a lot of fun, but we were so busy having fun that I unfortunately did not get many pictures of the birthday boy and girl opening presents, etc. I will do better next time!
Happy Birthday to all of my February folks. I love you all!
