Day 61: PARRR---TEEEE at TheHowserHouse!!!!

Another very warm day dawned and around 7 I pushed up and out of my horizontal position and went downstairs, turned on the coffee maker....and soon I was cradling a steaming mug of hot French Roast coffee!!! The 1st Lady became vertical around 8:30 this morning.....and then a bit later I took care of my morning rituals.

Later in the morning we went to WalMart to get some of the necessary items we needed for our Happy Hour(s) Party this afternoon. Yep........we invited a few of our good friends over for an ABC Happy Hour....everyone brings an appetizer, beverage, and chairs. Sooooo, we got the items we needed and returned to TheHowserHouse.......and then relaxed for a bit.

I got a few things together for outside on the patio.....and soon the 1st Lady was preparing some of her wonderful little sausages in a crescent rolls(blanket) and then covered in a nut and honey sauce......ummmm, soooo good!

By 4pm.....everyone was arriving and soon the fun and food, the hilarious laughter, and some stimulating conversations were occurring. The food was plentiful.....and wonderful!!! The drinks became a bit stronger with each cup/glass full.......and soon the neighborhood was driving by or walking by to check out the action at TheHowserHouse! We had a total of 20 here......and the weather was wonderful for a party such as this, except the winds were a bit strong and gusty for holding our plates, etc.

By 6:30pm....this great group of friends were feeling really good.....and enjoying the Happy Hour(s)!!!! But.....we had more to do..... We are all square dancers and so we adjourned to the Llano Grande Rec Hall for the weekly square dance. I believe we sparked things up at bit there as not toooo many were there tonight......and when the 18 of us surged inside......yep, the hall began to ring with peals of laughter! Ahhhhh.......such fun....which I know that you non-square dancers cannot understand.......it is one of the most fun activities that I have done in the past 30 years!!!!

It was a GRAND evening.....a FUN evening......and a highly CALORIC evening with all of the great food that was brought to the party. Oh well.........I will just have to cut back this next week.
No doubt....after another day like this that......

LIFE IS INCREDIBLY GREAT!!!!!!!.....And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!!
