And Where Were YOU???

You all suck.

Well, it was a small party, but a great one. The food was spectacularly delicious. I had shrimp cocktail and sauce out. And just in case you didn't feel all fancy, I had loaded baked potato pringles. First done were the hot dogs. Then the teriaki chicken legs. The were subtle. (They taste more teriaki-y if you bake them.) I thought they were great. And I had corn on the cob with butter. Mmm! Then Josh did the zillion.5 pork steaks. I didn't have any, because he drenched them in barbecue sauce, and I'm not a fan. He also had a little pan of beans, but same story there. The kids were cheerful in the background, kicking their inflatable Jupiter (blame my brother for the inflatable solar system). I made a big punch bowl of bullfrog (hats of to telluride in Columbia) which I drank a LOT of, and we had beer and root beer and lemonade.

After we had all eaten our fill of barbecue (okay, maybe some of us re-visited it later), we made s'mores in the microwave. We were going to use kabob skewers and toast the marshmallows, but Josh forgot and put out the fire. Then we played Boggle. It was fun. I think I got second place. Boggle is the only game I can think of that I love, but am not especially good at.

I didn't really take any pictures. Too bad. The s'mores were funny. Our last guest got called in to work and left around 7:30pm. It was kinda weird to be done so early, but probably a good thing for the kids.

Grant and Abbie, speaking of the kids, are very adorably playing with Raggedy Ann and Andy. (They were my mother's.) At first, Ann and Andy were sick, and they were feeding them toast and medicine. Now they are putting them to bed over and over.

Ooo. That's a good point. It is time to my babies to bed, too. I had better do that.

I kinda want to go to the Ren. Faire tomorrow after practice, but Josh is baulking. *sniff*

Hope you have a wonderful evening! I know how to throw a party. Next time you should COME TO IT.
