Welcome back for round 2 of Sunday Night Dinner :). This time was a bit different because we were celebrating Zebra Girl’s 11th birthday. It was a Partay! And of course, you can’t have a birthday with out presents. Ah, to be 11 again! When I saw some of her presents, I contemplated it again,…
This last weekend there was a huge gathering of friends and family and we were invited. Hubby wound up having prior engagements that took him most of Saturday. Tbug and I got tired of waiting on him plus he’d entered his chili in the chili cookoff; so Tbug and I decided to go without him,…

My mother-in-law surprised Pokey with a “girl in a bikini” birthday cake for his birthday. He didn’t see it coming, but we all knew :).
