Dee and I had a WONDERFUL night at the casino hotel (courtesy of Mary, Ryan and Alice…thanks guys!) without the boys. We had the seafood buffet, gambled a little and were planning on hanging out to watch the ball game, but the lounge was full so we went back to the room and watched the game on our super cool, high definition flat screen tv. We also watched Aeonflux and it was hella weird but the first movie we’ve been able to watch interupted in a long time.

Tonight was Dee’s 40th birthday party and it was a success! I’d guess there were about 35 people that came by and it was the perfect size group for the space and to be able to chat with everyone and feel good about the evening. The boys were angels up until the end when they were all sugared up and tired, then we knew it was time to pack up and bring them home. Dee had a TON of fun, kicked back and had some drinks and loved the party. So it was all worth it! On a side note, if anyone needs some meatballs, little smokies or little pinwheel sandwiches, we have a LOT to share. I always buy a ton too much food! Pictures to come later!

Well, the boys are tucked in and I think Dee fell asleep with Carlos so I better clean up and get some sleep. Tomorrow’s Dee’s actual birthday and we are planning to have brunch with my parents and then kick back and do nothing and just hang out! How perfect to have her birthday fall on Football Sunday! 🙂
