At the end of dinner, Grant serenaded Amanda with his own re-written lyrics to the song "Mandy" by Barry Manilow. It was so funny.

On Sunday I met up with Dave & Felicia to celebrate Vin's birthday.

Henrietta stood up to tell funny stories about my dad as a little kid. My dad cracking jokes with my cousin Chris. ...I get the gift of gab from my dad. (Ok, probably from my mom too). The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... Fun to watch him walk around and work the room. ...he made the rounds and chatted up everyone and thanked them all for flying down to Florida to help him celebrate. And then before dinner came out... My dad thanked everyone for coming! This camera sort of sucked in low light. Cell phones were eating away at the camera market and they started putting in cheaper light-sensing chips!
