Lordy, Lordy, Rodney's 40!!!

Since we were going to be in Tokyo for the Fourth of July, our friends the Baileys had us over for a cookout before we left. What we didn't tell Rodney was that it was also a birthday celebration for him!!

He found out when we walked into the tower and found the first sign:
"Lordy, Lordy, Rodney's 40!"

"Forty isn't old if you're a tree!"

"In dog years, you're dead!"
"OMG, you're OLD!"

But, his favorite signs were the ones made by his "little man" buddy, Clark :)
 

They look tough, don't they?!?!!?!?

But, believe me, they're not ;o)
Our friends and fellow chaplains, Father "Papa" Chapa and Brian Bailey.

His favorite gift was his Star Wars travel mug... Notice the button on the bottom piece? Press it and it plays the Star Wars theme song!! He plans to make use of that when passing information at a staff meeting :)

His other favorite gift was a bottle of DUKE'S mayonnaise!! We'd heard about Duke's from some other friends from South Carolina, but had never had the opportunity to try it until that night----YUM!!!

Happy Birthday, Rodney!!!

After that much fun evening, it was time to get home and get to bed. We had an early morning plane to catch to TOKYO!!!!
