One is never too old...

One is never too old (or too cool) to wear colourful paper birthday hats...

(My cousin Jackie and her boys, Adam and John, were visiting, so they could join the birthday festivities!)

One is never too old to don a "Birthday Boy" pin, and have a cake covered with swirly candles delivered while the "Happy Birthday" chorus is being belted out...

One is never too old to proudly blow out his candles- even given this germ-a-phobe/H1N1 era that we live in (it's okay. Most of us are vaccinated)...

One is also never too old to complete crazy puzzles with kids, or influence their birthday-hat-wearing habits...

And finally, one is never too old to have a good soak in the hot tub then snuggle on the couch and watch the Smurfs...

I realize that in the grand scheme of things, 28 isn't old. In fact, it's really very young. I just hope that we'll still be celebrating our EIGHTY- eighth birthdays with family/friends, hats, pins, candles, cakes,PRESENTS, hot tubs... aaaand the Smurfs.
