PaPa's 87th Birthday: November 5, 1921

Yesterday we all celebrated my PaPa's 87th birthday. Born November 5, 1921 in South Carolina as Howard Marion Campbell. Can you believe he wanted to eat Mexican food? He loves the cheese dip and just plain tacos. YUMMY! We had no complaints; El Vallarta is our favorite.

PaPa is still trying to keep himself busy. He likes to piddle around his junk yard, although he would never call it junk. Tractors are still his second love; he and my MaMa have been married for 62 years! PaPa has great stories. He loves telling Andy about his WWII days and when he used to travel near Schanootesville, IL. Did I spell that correctly? The reason he likes to tell Andy that story is because it is near Ohio and he traveled through Ohio to get home to VA from IL.

PaPa and MaMa just love seeing little Miss Anna Campbell. We took her by their home for Halloween so they could see the real Minnie Mouse in person.

Take a look at our pictures! More to come soon!
