With a core of 8 of the 'guys' from all the way back to High School.......and for some of them farther than that....someone just has to suggest birthday party and we're good to go!
Mix into that, a "well co-ordinated severals months in the making" gathering of 100+ people to partake in festivities, live band Jensen & Walker with Fly coming in late to play later in the evening. Amazing sound had people rockin on the floor all night long!
Even during the Fire Alarm!!! Nice going Kuke.
So we had a nice dinner and cake at Alice's with Bag, Reg, B-I-L, Toast, Livvy, Evvy & Hansum. No Teeje and no OhMyBosh, dog sitting!
Time to "pop-in" thanks to Kathryn telling us it would be a surprise for JLon Johnny L for a quick brew and raise a glass to celebrate his 50th....but we're location challenged. Tuscany's apparently. We drove past the plaza and didn't notice it, so we went to Shopper's for directions. Sent us to 'another' Tuscany's across town, and it was closed under renovations. So thinking it was time to head home, for some reason, and urging from the passengers, we tripped back to the first locations, and what do ya know if we don't see a few friends outside. Lucky us.
So with no forwarning or anything said about JL being inside, we went in to and got hammered by a rousing "SURPRISE" and signage saying HAPPY 50th to the gang.
Individual cards, one big banner, tons of flowing cocktails, biggest birthday cake I've ever seen, and sandwiches that could've feed the entire town, it was a feast!!! It was fantastic! And it was over all too fast, clearly confirming that time flies when you're having fun!
Some faces i hadn't seen for years and the catching up was terrific.
looking forward to doing it again in another 50 years (the end of our 2nd trimester).
O-tay!
Pretty nice gift from Brother Bag to do all he did on a day for us, that was in fact HIS birthday.
What a guy that kid bro is....I owe you large!
