A Night Turned Special

You can't deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants.  ~Stephen King, Hearts in Atlantis

This past Friday was Michael’s birthday.  He had to work Friday and Saturday, trying planning anything was not really possible.  He works twelve hour shifts.  We usually go out to eat with my sweet brother & sister-in-law about once a month.  We are so fortunate that Mandy and Ronny can usually meet us. 

Anyway, after a long day at work Michael decided he wasn't too tired to go out to dinner.  We were going out for our routine dinner with these wonderful people.  Sweet Haley joined us this time...she is so cute.  We went to one of our favorite places.  We went to eat Habachi style.

Someone told the Hibachi Chef –Chef Donnie it was Michael's birthday….everything took off.  We all laughed so much.  No one brought a camera, because it was suppose to be just another routine dinner with family.  This picture was taken by Mandy using her phone. 

I had tried to work something for Sunday with family, but there was scheduling conflicts.  So, the impromptu Saturday night created an unexpected celebration.  Who would have thought a routine night out would have turned into so much laughter?  I know what you are thinking…must have been alcohol involved….FYI…NO alcoholic beverages were served all night.  It was just fun with a wonderful group of people. 

Mandy, Ronny, Monty, Tammy and Haley thank you for meeting us for dinner. Thank you for all the laughter and love. Thank you for making Michael’s birthday a little extra special.  It started out as a routine dinner and it was anything but routine.  THANK YOU!!!! 

Hopefully, I will have Cali’s birthday pictures here soon. The pictures of the adults sliding down the inflatable slides are great. Good time and Great Memories.
