Birthday Barbecue Photos

Here we are with our guest of honour, Naperville's Mayor George Pradel.

Spike may not be too handy as a baker, but he can sure come up with a great photo for Grumpy's birthday cake every year. Here he is as a Blackhawks team member with the Stanley Cup.
Having forgotten to invite any fire fighters, so we decided to ditch the other 50 candles.....
Some like it hot...and for once even Grumpy was happy, but you can't keep a good dwarf down.
When you have 135 guests, you need a little food to keep them going.

This year's band - 2 Groove.
The party went on for so long, some people decided to camp out.
Donna Dreizdic, executive director of Naperville libraries, is delighted not to be 'shushed' for once.
Celebrating their first anniversary in Naperville, Geordie Sue and the family.
Ding, ding - it's Naperville Trolley chick Annette Wehrli and her son Joe.
Joe comes disguised as a great explorer...
which wasn't really necessary because we already had a Hunter.
Serendipity brought along her pet parrot Monty. She has an homage to him tattooed on her leg. If you look really, really, carefully, you can just make out a tattoo of her on his leg......

  • Rumours 'round the cul-de-sac are that the party was great. Sorry I had to miss it but trust Grumpy had a good time and no one reported ptomaine from his cooking. Hope you get to celebrate your 50th birthday for several more years.
