Lisa C Being a Great Sport with PJ's on Her Head!
It’s been a long time since Mama and I have had a party that didn’t include a princess related theme, more children than adults or a jumper, and I realized this morning (after yesterday’s party) that’s it been way too long. Needless to say, we did a friendly potluck yesterday (with more adults than children) and it was awesome. Thank you so much for everyone that joined in. The food was fantastic, the weather was amazing (especially for November), the wine was divine, and the company cannot be matched. Thank you to everyone that joined in, we appreciate it more than you know.
Of course, no good party would be great without some stories, a few pictures and maybe a video or two. Fortunately for all, we got a few of each. Don’t worry, nothing too embarrassing for anyone.
Many of our friends that came to this party were co-workers of Gina and their spouses and children. It’s nice to see that most of the teachers have geeky husbands, and that similarity seemed to give everyone something to talk about. John Ironmonger was in town for his daughter’s basketball game (University of Oregon vs. San Jose State) and was able to make it by for a snack and catch-up. I’ve missed seeing John every day, and am very happy to know that he’s doing well, enjoying life and very, very happily married to his sweetie. Carolyn and Carl are (finally) engaged, which added some additional celebration, and there was plenty of good food – for the meaties and the vegies – to go around. Everyone brought along a bottle or two of wine and I think we consumed all but one. That made for a very light afternoon, and at 6:00PM we were still sitting outside enjoy a 71 degree evening in November!
