Spontaneity Is A Good Thing

February 7, 2011 By Carole

Our Saturday plans including a lazy morning at home, a birthday party for our nephews in the afternoon, and a move in the evening.

We had our lazy morning at home and then headed to Dale’s brother’s house for the party.

There was lots of family there.

There was food and drink.

And more family photos.

And there was cake.

We had so much fun we wound up staying and staying.

We never did make it to the movies. But we didn’t even care.

    Impromptu parties are the best!! You can always see the movie later, and celebrating is more fun anyway!!!

    Family gatherings like that trump movies anyday! The movie will likely still be playing and if not, there is always the DVD, right? Looks like a great time. I wish we had family closer!
