Mike Holmes Birthday Bash Report

Mike's big 25x2 birthday came and went as birthdays usually do. About 10PM EST on Friday, Mike announced that he was having a great time at his Caribbean themed birthday part, complete with a live band and all of his friends, family, and coworkers. Mike must have felt like a king... literally, as there are multiple pictures from Facebook floating around with Mike and others wearing a crown and posing with family in a big "Crown Royal" emblemed throne. (Those pictures unfortunately cannot be posted due to the fact that I probably wasn't suppose to see them!)

Mike did tweet an image of him and his lovely Anna on stage with the live band. In the picture, he is serenading her with the song "Stand By Me."

  

His daughters Sherry and Amanda were in attendance, of course. Sherry wore a beautiful black polka dotted dress and Amanda wore a pretty blue metallic dress. MJ, Mike's son, wore a blue shirt with grey slacks. Anna, in the photograph above, wore what appeared to be a floor-lengthed orange or red and white swirled patterned dress. And Mike? Mike dressed like Mike, in a striped shirt and vest, with jeans and sneakers.

  1. One would think that as a fan you would respect their privacy more than to not publish private personal information.

    1. All the information I published was public information, including the pictures, which were both posted by Mike. I am not privy to private information, and I certainly don't have a crystal ball in my bum.

    2. Well what about the "black dress" and the "blue metallic dress"? I see no pictures of that.

    3. Well anonymous, by even the most creative of standards, there is no way on earth or in heaven that saying someone wore a black dress and someone wore a blue dress could even remotely be considered an invasion of privacy. Get real. Honest to goodness...

  2. Lol, you don't have to repost them but you could tell us where we can find them;). Since you don't know Mike & have no connection the show or family, we can only assume you saw them online. If they are posted online, they are now public, ergo, link please:))!

    1. Well, I will say that I saw the photos on Facebook. The accounts were public accounts, but I typically do not post people's Facebook photos unless its from a public figures public page. I don't want to spook people into making their accounts private by swiping photos without their permission. That, and I personally think its rude to do so. So, if you're creative and patient enough, you should be able to track them down. But I don't feel comfortable posting pics or links until they've been officially made public.

  3. Absolutely nothing posted here is an invasion of privacy. Nothing. False accusations will only make Raquel hesitant to post things in the future. Liz

    1. As far as I know, everyone was in attendance. I know from hearsay and talking with people who know other people, not from my own experience. I believe I saw a photo with Damon in it, and I saw a family group shot of Mike and his kin and that's about it.

  5. I haven't come accross the family group shot yet, but I have seen individual pics of the family, everyone looks very nice. I did see a pic of Damon with 'Ben's' wife, none with him & the holmes family, but quite a few of the other guys on the crew with Mike. It looks like a really nice event, way to go Mike!
