DInner with Friends

2008.02.23
Excellent seafood

Theme for the night.. They service Bison (uck!)

Mirrow with a view of another moose

What's a Moose theme with out..... Moose antler lighting

Tonight we had our "Belated"Christmas dinner with friends (not pictured). We became friends with this couple in 1985, our sons became fast friends, and brought us along. Our daughters are friends and now our granddaughters are"best friends" they see each other once/twice a year. Seven years ago we stopped the "friend present giving" and decided the ladies would take the guys and vice versa. We get all dressed up and it's a surprise as to where we take each other. Christmas music in the background as we travel around looking at the Christmas decorations... Except this year. The wife lost her father during that time so we postpone the celebrations until tonight.

No pictures of them.. another time.

DancingDolphin What a nice tradition... you really do reach an age where you just don't want one more present don't you? Well... maybe ONE more! :-) Nice shots, especially the mirror.

ambersunsets Very lovely sentiment to share with friends. It's special when your children's friends hook you up with some great friends, too.
Cool shots!

oldbabe I like the lights. Such ambiance. Haven't been to thunderbay in years. This sounds like a nicer present than something you don't need!

bettyluvsduncan Sounds like a great time! Sorry for your friends loss. I lost my dad right before the holiday and know how tough that is! I'm glad you still were able to get together - better late than never! : )

TheCrazyCroat There is nothing better on god's green earth then good friends. Hope your time was wonderful, but I suspect it was. So sorry to hear about their loss. That's a tough one I'm still going through. I just lost my Dad last month.
