Surprise 40th Birthday Celebration

Posted in Weekend Wrap-up at 9:38 pm by lilbitgabby

Lisa’s 40th birthday was last weekend.  Aaron sent me a text about 4:00 in the afternoon asking if I could put together a little surprise party for that night. They were in Brewster and he figured they would be home about 7:00. Well… I got right on it. Called a few people, picked up a few decorations, a big batch of cupcakes, and ice cream, and we had a party that night. We had everyone park just around the corner at the high school and Tman shuttled them to the house for the party.

I think she was really surprised. It was a fun little last minute get together. The last minute get togethers are often the best kind…

Family, friends, yummy food, and fun visiting…. it doesn’t get much better! I will be posting a photo slide show on my photo blog Life Is Good.

Quick Weekend Update

Posted in Weekend Wrap-up at 11:47 pm by lilbitgabby

Not a lot to update… we are sick. Have been for awhile. Ick. Yuck. Not all of us at once. Isn’t that the way it goes? Get a sickness that lasts for what seems like forever, and then get it one or two at a time… at least there are only five of us in the house now days. Ready to be done with this. 

I’m off to sip tea… and check on a sick kid before I head to bed.

Taking a Monday Morning Break

Posted in Weekend Wrap-up at 8:40 am by Mrs. Mom

I missed my baby snuggles on Friday. Baby and his mommy went to Omak for a bridal shower. We invited Aaron and the boys over for dinner, but they had other plans. We had bbq ribs for dinner. Mmmm… yummy! All I can say is, they missed out on a great meal.

Drew had a birthday over the weekend. We all went out for his birthday dinner on Sunday. Crab was on the menu… yummy! I can’t even tell you how much crab, clams, and shrimp my family ate. I can feel it today… my diet today will consist of water LOL

Okay, break time is over… I’m back to sorting and flinging.

More Lilbits of this and that

Posted in Weekend Wrap-up, Family at 8:25 pm by lilbitgabby

Friday and Saturday we were at the all star games for our step grandson. His team came in second place. They won on Friday night. Saturday night, the team lost, but he made an awesome catch. Fun-fun-fun… baseball in the rain.

Father’s day was nice this year. We went to the kids house to celebrate along with extended family. I baked a big salmon, yum. We stopped by to see how my Uncle was doing. It was extremely emotional for my boys. Brandon was out of town so he hadn’t seen Uncle this ill. We stayed pretty late, just sitting there in the quiet. Hubby spent the night to help take care of him.

Monday was a long day. I don’t know what made it a long day, but it was. In the afternoon we had a recognition ceremony to attend. It was in honor of my 11 year old step grandson. After that we went to the kids house for a fish fry. I know. Fried! But it was so good! Brandon had gone deep sea fishing on Saturday and he brought back a bunch of fish fillets. He caught 14 fish. How fun is that! Well, he was fishing with Ashley, her dad, brothers, cousins, and uncles. Hmmmm… how fun was that? LOL *just kidding* Actually, he did have fun. They didn’t give him too bad a time.

Earlier in the evening we got on the baby-cam with the babies. It was bedtime for both babies, so we didn’t stay online long, but it was fun while it lasted.

So anyway, we had fried fish. I found a recipe on recipezaar.com, posted by Mysterygirl, for Long John Silver’s fried fish batter. It’s a highly rated - reviewed recipe and it is good. Dinner was on the table fairly late because of the hectic schedules our family has, but it was relaxing. We sat around the table visiting for a long time. I love nights like that.

Tonight was just relaxing… we didn’t go anywhere.

Birthday wishes to Andrea and Anniversary wishes to Aaron and Lisa….
