Frederico es Cinquenta!

Translated...Frederick is 50! And what a celebration he had, globe trotting to celebrate with friends and family!

Here we are in Isla Mujeres, Mexico in November out for an adults-only dinner! From left to right: Don and Shelli Larson (relatively new friends from Gab's school), Rick and Cindy Platt, friends for 15 years and our children's Godparents, Shelly and Larry Beckham, friends from our small group at church, me and Fred, and Mark and Katryn Overaker. Mark is a childhood friend of Fred's and a current client of Dixie Freight Solutions.The whole bunch of us smiling 'cuz we're on a beautiful carribean island!
Aren't we cute in our matching "Frederico es cinquenta" T-shirts?
In December we traveled to see Fred's sister Susan in Denver. His other sister Cathy and his parents were able to join us. Jonathan is missing from this photo as well as Elyse and Alex, Fred's nieces who are away at college.
While in Denver, Fred has yet another birthday dinner with family, cousins and family friends!
Finally! December 16th rolls around and the celebration is at home in Houston. Jonathan's future step-daughters are anxiously awaiting cake.
